Explanation of 2019-2020 Academic Scores

The disruption in teaching and learning caused by the COVID-19 pandemic led the United States Department of Education (USEd) to grant the Georgia Department of Education’s (GaDOE) assessment and accountability waiver request for the 2019-2020 school year. As such, the statewide summative assessments, the Georgia Milestones Assessments were not administered in the 2019-2020 school year. Georgia Milestones Assessment data are critical to calculating all SCSC CPF academic performance metrics (e.g., the College and Career Readiness Performance Index (CCRPI), Value-Added Measure (VAM), and Beating the Odds (BTO) Thus, no academic data are available to report.
