RI High School Diploma System Requirements
January 2013
Slide2Overview of the Diploma System Requirements
The 2011 Secondary Regulations set up a multiple measures system that requires students to meet all of the measures in order to earn a RI HS Diploma.
It is important to communicate to students and families that the NECAP assessments in Reading and Math are just one of those required measures.
Slide3RI 2011 Math NECAP Scores
The purpose of the progress plan and associated interventions are to move students from a score of 1 (substantially below proficient) to a level of proficiency that indicates progress.

Slide5According to the 2011 Secondary Regulations, students taking the NECAP for a second time are required to score partially proficient (2) or demonstrate progress. See
Secondary Regulations Initial Guidance
document, pages 13 and 14 of the guidance.
The chart below illustrates the difference between a student earning a 2 on the second administration of the NECAP test and a student demonstrating that they have made progress toward partial proficiency.
Slide6The question below represents the level of cognitive difficulty of the types of math problems that students must complete in order to demonstrate Partial Proficiency (level 2) or show progress toward proficiency.
In the graph on the previous slide, a student would have to successfully complete 6 -7 of this type of problem to reach the required level of progress.
