The Arkansas Department of Education is pleased to announce the release of My School Info (MSI) - December 2017 Enhancements.The December 2017 update of My School Info provides new data for 2017-2018 and, two (2) new data sets:

• School districts and Schools for the 2017-2018 school year have been added.
• The ACT Aspire Growth data set(s) has been added for the 2015-2016 and, 2016-2017 school year.
• Workforce Stability Index data sets for 2016-2017 & 2017-2018 school years,

Districts and Schools have now been loaded for the 2017-2018 school year. 

The ACT Aspire Growth data has been added for the 2015-2016 school year.  There are subgroups for LEA Mean Value-Added Growth for Math and for ELA, for grades 3-10 and for all grades combined.

Arkansas is developing a Workforce Stability Index (WSI) to help inform school districts regarding considerations for recruiting, assigning, and retaining a quality educator workforce. The relative stability of an educator workforce can be estimated by examining factors determined to be relevant to educator quality.

Note: In the upcoming enhancements, the option of adding a new report called "Growth vs. Achievement" is being explored. The Growth and Achievement report allows users to graphically plot the relationship between ACT Aspire Growth data and ACT Aspire Achievement data.  The interface consists of two tabs: “All Students” and “By Demographic Group”.
