By News Release @ 6:00 PM :: 4999 Views :: Education K-12, Hawaii Statistics

Strive HI reports show statewide school performance measures remain steady

News Release from Hawaii DoE, 19-Sep-2017

The Hawaii State Department of Education shared its 2016-17 Strive HI Performance System results this evening during the Board of Education community meeting. The school accountability system focuses on state and schools' progress on Strategic Plan Student Success Objectives and provides educators and communities with information to take action for student learning.

"The results are encouraging and show our focus moving in the right direction with college and career readiness measures remaining steady, including some growth in Science," said Superintendent Dr. Christina Kishimoto. "As we move forward, we will be very specific and purposeful in our approach to address the achievement gap and chronic absenteeism. We will take what we have learned about effective student-centered practices since 2005 and raise our implementation work to another level."

While statewide overall results in English Language Arts, Math and Science have shown growth over the past three years; the results have been mixed compared to 2016:

  • Science – up 4 percentage points from 2016 (2015: 41%; 2016: 42%; 2017: 46%)
  • Mathematics – no change from 2016 (2015: 41%; 2016: 42%; 2017: 42%)
  • English Language Arts/Literacy – down 1 percentage point from 2016 (2015: 48%; 2016: 51%; 2017: 50%)

While overall state results were stable, the following schools showed the most growth in English Language Arts and Math over the past three years (scroll to the bottom of the release for an extended list of top performing schools):

English Language Arts/Literacy – Three-year average gains in percentage of students meeting/exceeding standards:

    (2015: 25%; 2016: 59%; 2017: 59%)

    (2015: 33%; 2016: 58%; 2017: 66%)

    (2015: 15%; 2016: 22%; 2017: 47%)
  • Kapolei Elementary – up 13 percentage points
    (2015: 30%; 2016: 52%; 2017: 56%)

    (2015: 19%; 2016: 39%; 2017: 44%)

    (2015: 49%; 2016: 49%; 2017: 71%)

Strive HI was launched in school year 2012-13 as the state's locally designed performance system that was a waiver from the federal No Child Left Behind (NCLB) law. The accountability system includes multiple measures of school performance including proficiency in Science, Math and Language Arts/Literacy; chronic absenteeism; school climate; graduation rates; and achievement gaps. The system was modified earlier this year to address the federal requirements under the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) and the revised DOE/BOE Strategic Plan. The law replaces both NCLB and the state's waiver. ESSA requires full implementation including the provisions related to school accountability this school year.

English Language Arts and Math scores are derived from the Smarter Balanced Assessment, and Science scores are from the Hawaii State Assessment in Science.
