Connecticut’s Next Generation Accountability System is a broad set of 12 indicators that help tell the story of how well a school is preparing its students for success in college, careers and life. The system moves beyond test scores and graduation rates to provide a more holistic, multi-factor perspective of district and school performance. The 12 Indicators are: 1. Academic achievement status measured by state assessments 2. Academic growth 3. Assessment participation rate 4. Chronic absenteeism 5. Postsecondary preparation - coursework 6. Postsecondary readiness – exams and college credit 7. Graduation – on track in ninth grade 8. Graduation – four-year adjusted cohort graduation rate – all students 9. Graduation – six-year adjusted cohort graduation rate – high needs 10. Postsecondary entrance rate – all students (college enrollment) 11. Physical fitness 12. Arts access
