Community School SponsorshipPerformance SummaryEach year, the Ohio Department of Education (ODE) submits a report on Ohio’s communityschools to the governor and members of the Ohio General Assembly. As part of thisprocess, the North Central Ohio Educational Service Center (NCOESC) is submitting thisreport to evaluate and summarize the performance and compliance of its sponsoredschools in four areas: Academic Performance, Fiscal Performance, Organization andOperation, and Legal Compliance.As a community school sponsor (authorizer), NCOESC strives to be a leader in the charterschool movement, advocating for school choice. Our mission is to build strongpartnerships with educational leaders to promote unique and high-quality educationalexperiences for students in Ohio, advocating excellence in education. During the 2019-20school year, NCOESC sponsored fourteen community schools with enrollment of 2,450students. NCOESC sponsors one drop-out recovery school and thirteen general educationschools in 2019-2020. These schools represent a variety of grade-level configurations andunique educational opportunities for students they serve.Performance RatingsNCOESC provides rigorous oversight, monitoring, and technical assistance to oursponsored schools with processes and protocols that align with standards developed bythe National Association of Charter School Authorizers and the state of Ohio’s SponsorPerformance Review. NCOESC collects data from its sponsored schools throughout theyear to determine specifically the extent to which each school is performing in thefollowing four areas: academic, fiscal, operational/organizational and legal compliance.Data gathered through a variety of means reviewed and analyzed to determine school’sperformance includes the following: Site visits to schools, including walkthroughs while school is in session with findingsreported to the governing authority at meetings; Monthly financial reviews; Attendance at community school governing authority board meetings; Ongoing reviews of assessment data highlighting student achievement and growth; Ongoing reviews in the areas of state and federal compliance, academics, specialeducation, operations, and finance; Ongoing technical assistance delivered by trained and experienced staff; and, Reviews of reports electronically submitted to the NCOESC compliance-trackingdatabase.10
Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, the NCOESC is not able to assign a rating to the academicpart of their sponsor report for the 2019-2020 school year. More information related tothis is provided below.Information provided below also addresses criteria to determine whether a schoolexceeds, meets, or does not meet the expected performance level in each of the four areas;academic performance, fiscal performance, organizational/operational performance, andlegal compliance.Academic PerformanceAs a community school authorizer the North Central Ohio ESC has a duty to monitor andprovide oversight and technical assistance to all of its sponsored schools. This includes anassessment of each school’s academic performance on an annual basis. During a typicalyear, the North Central Ohio ESC uses multiple measures of academic performance andthe results of the school’s attainment of goals outlined in the charter contract’s AcademicAssessment & Accountability/Performance Framework (Attachments 6.4 & 11.6, Part I &II of Sponsorship Contract) to determine a school’s rating.However, the 2019-2020 school year was not typical. Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic,Ohio’s Governor, Mike DeWine issued an order for closure of all schools in Ohio, effectiveMarch 17, 2020. This closure led to cancellation of all face-to-face instruction and theadministration of the Ohio State Assessments as well as the release of the Ohio StateReport Cards and school ratings for the 2019-2020 school year. Therefore, due to thestate-ordered closures and lack of academic data, the North Central Ohio ESC is unable tofully complete its determination of the academic performance of its sponsored schools forthe 2019-2020 school year. For the 2019-2020 school year annual report and all schoolsponsor reports the North Central Ohio ESC uses “NR” meaning Not Reported due toCOVID-19 Pandemic and lack of data.Fiscal PerformanceNCOESC rated each school’s fiscal performance using information from the following:board-approved financial reports, Ohio Auditor of State audits (including any findings andsuccessfully addressing such findings), monthly financial reviews, five-year forecasts,annual budgets, and other financial information as requested of the school throughout theyear.With the information described, NCOESC rates the school’s Fiscal Performance bycalculating scores in six areas: Current Ratio (Total Assets/Liabilities- Is school keeping up with short-term financialobligations?)Days cash on hand (45 days or more is good while 15 to 45 fair, and under 15 dayssignals potential financial distress)Change in Fund Balance Ratio (Is school living within their means?)Enrollment trends (Main revenue stability)Five-year forecast review11Most –recently released audit results
A school “exceeds” expectations if it meets the NCOESC measurement standards in all sixareas. A school “meets expectations” if it meets the NCOESC measurement standards inat least four areas. If the fiscal performance was below these standards, it is determinedthe school “did not meet” expectations for its fiscal performance rating.Organization and Operational PerformanceNCOESCS rated the school’s organization and operational performance based oncombined information showing how successfully the governing authority executed itsgovernance duties under the contract. The factors considered include conducting requirednumber of meetings, maintaining sufficient number of approved members, maintainingsufficient board meeting minutes, fulfilling member-training requirements, maintainingcompliance with the governing authority’s Code of Regulations, conducting monthlyfinancial reviews, and complying with open meetings requirements.A school “exceeds” expectations if the minimum contractual requirements are met in allareas and exceeded in at least one of the areas. A school “meets” expectations if theminimum contractual requirements are met in all of the areas. If the organization andoperational performance was below these standards, it is determined the school “did notmeet” expectations for its organizational and operational performance rating.Legal ComplianceNCOESC rated the school’s Legal Compliance based on a combination of its adherence tostate and federal statute, the community school contract, and compliance items from thesponsor evaluation. A school will have met expectations if it has a 100% compliance ratewith health and safety requirements and at least 95% for all requirements.SummaryDuring the 2019-2020 school year, NCOESC sponsored 14 community schools. NCOESC ispleased to report that:3 schools received a rating of “Meets” in the three rated areas; and10 schools received a rating of “Meets” or better in the three of the rated areas; and1 school received a rating of “Exceeds” in all three rated areas.NCOESC staff members are working diligently to provide technical assistance to schoolleaders, governing authority members, fiscal officers, and other stakeholders to improvecompliance and ensure steady progress for those schools not meeting expectations in agiven area. NCOESC remains committed to working with each school to individualize ourtechnical assistance offerings so that more Ohio students have access to high-qualityeducational options.12
North Central Ohio ESC SponsoredCommunity Schools’ PerformanceIn evaluating the performance of our schools, NCOESC looks at multiple measures but particularlyAchievement and Progress.Achievement answers the questions—How many students passed the state tests (Indicators Met)and how well each student performed on the state tests (Performance Index).The progress component looks closely at the growth that all students are making from year-toyear based on their past performances.Below is a snapshot of our schools’ achievement and progress for the 2019-2020 school year. It isimportant to note that 10 of our 14 schools serve high percentages of students who areeconomically disadvantaged.13
