The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) requires the Wyoming Department of Education (WDE) to gather feedback on the state report card in order to make improvements. A survey is available online through April 7, 2019. The report card was published by the WDE at wyomingmeasuresup.com. It provides information at the state, district, and school level. The feedback collected through this survey will be used to consider changes and improvements to the report card.
For more information, contact Kari Eakins at 307-777-2871 or kari.eakins@wyo.gov.
Any home-school student who receives services or classes at a district school should already be a part of the nightly upload as a primary enrolled student with the home-school indicator. In order to identify home-school students not enrolled within your student informational system, theWDE must collect information to associate them with a school in TIDE. The WDE687 collection will be used to collect information on home-school students not served by any Wyoming school district. This collection will open on April 8, one week prior to the testing window. Districts should submit rosters a minimum of two days prior to your first test day.
The collection will be submitted through the DCS (Data Collection Suite). The WDE687 Certify role will need to be assigned to the WyEd User account of the person submitting the roster. To access the data collection form, guidebook, and error report go to the Forms Inventory Page and click on the arrow to the left of the WDE687 and then the Documents tab.
For assistance with the WDE687, contact Brian Wuerth at 307-777-6748 or brian.wuerth@wyo.gov.
A confidential student-level college and career readiness report will be made available for school districts to review on the Accountability Confidential site on April 8. Districts are being given the opportunity to correct and resubmit their WDE950 2017-18 senior transcripts, as needed, during the review window, which is April 8-19, 2019. Any missing or updated transcripts must be submitted during this window through the Wyoming Transcript Center. After April 19, the student-level data will be considered verified as accurate by each district.
For assistance with the WDE950, contact Liz Foster at 307-777-7009 or elizabeth.foster@wyo.gov.
