Progress: Grantees far exceeded the target of a 5% yearly increase over the baseline (17%). The percent increase was 194% over the baseline in year 2 and 32% over the 2003 target in year 3. Explanation: The 2002 target was to set a baseline. The 2003 target is 5 percent over the baseline. The 2004 target is 5 percent over the 2003 target. This measure is discontinued for FY 2005. |
Additional Source Information: Grantee Annual Performance Reports and Survey data. Validated By: No Formal Verification. Limitations: Data represent 34 out of 41 grantees (approximately 90% of all participants based on year 1 participant numbers). A small number of grantees did not have data available for 2004. Improvements: Grants were funded for a three year period. Data collection is complete |

Progress: The year 2 increase of 104% far exceeds the 5% expected yearly increase over the baseline (27%). Year 3 shows a significant drop in performance. There are two probable reasons. 1: Some teachers may have left their position, particularly since they were not required to commit to teaching for a specific length of time. 2: Several programs did not have teaching data from the state when they submitted their most recent report. Explanation: The 2002 target was to set a baseline. The 2003 target is 5 percent over the baseline. The 2004 target is 5 percent over the 2003 target. This measure is complete for the first cohort of Transition grantees (FY 2001). Measure will continue for FY 2002 grantees and beyond. |

Progress: For Cohort 1, the target for 2002 was to set the baseline. The target for Cohort 1 is 5 percent over the baseline for 2003 and 5 percent over the 2003 target for 2004. For Cohort 2, the target for 2003 was to set the baseline. The target for Cohort 2 is 5 percent over the baseline for 2004 and over the 2004 target for 2005. 2001 TTT grants were for 1 cohort, thus all data are reported under cohort 1. 2004 was the third year of the grant and thus the first year that TTT program participants could have taught for 3 years. The baseline should be set at 9%.
