Question 13

13. How do they affect student achievement?

  1. Our data has shown that more students pass the AHSGE in the 10th grade when mixed in Academy structure as well as higher scores in ADAW. I think students are more successful overall and also learn to communicate more effectively as well as being more tolerant. I would say overall achievement is much higher when speaking of academics as well as social skills.

  2. We found that achievement across the board increased with the implementation of the academies. Alabama Direct Assessment of Writing scores and Alabama High School Graduation Exam results showed marked improvement. Standard students not only showed improvement academically, but also improved in disciplinary matters and attitude/motivation.

  3. Since the implementation of the academies, more students have passed the Alabama High School Graduation exam and scored higher on ADAW. With students in academies there has been less disciplinary concerns and greater academic improvements

  4. Achievement improves for all students. Standardized test scores improve. Classroom grades improve. Behavior improves.
