Performance of Career & Technical Education (CTE) Students

Who Graduated in 2006

 

BOCES collects student performance data from component districts for students who participate in CTE BOCES programs.  The data in the chart are based upon total program completers (general education and students with disabilities.)  Data Source: CTEDS-2 Report

*CTEDS-2 Requests “Number that passed required Regents exams.”  As a  result, our data does not include RCTs.

 

 

Status of Career and Technical Education (CTE) Students

Who Graduated in 2006

 

BOCES Surveys CTE graduates within one year after program completion to determine if they are employed or continuing their education.  Data Source:  CTEDS-2 Report

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Alternative Education

 

BOCES operates full-day and/or half-day programs for general-education students who have been identified as having special needs not being met in school district programs.  Programs may include academics, vocational skills, work-study, specialized activities or a combination of these.  The BOCES Report Card includes alternative education program enrollment and outcome data for students in grades 5 through 8, as well as students in programs leading to high school diplomas or high school equivalency diplomas.  Data Source: Orange-Ulster BOCES

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note:  Orange-Ulster BOCES does not offer half-day alternative programs.

 

Alternative Education Outcomes

 

The objective of the alternative education program is to retain students until they graduate or return to a regular school setting.  Students counted as leaving programs may have done so for a variety of reasons including relocation, medical problems, childcare, incarceration or entering other education programs.  Data Source: Orange-Ulster BOCES

Adult Basic Education

Based on data reported for the National Reporting System (NRS) for adult education programs, enrollment in adult basic education programs for 2006-2007 was 2,076.

 

 

Educational Gain

Under the NRS, educational gain is the primary goal for students in adult beginning/intermediate programs, adult secondary (low) programs, and in English for speakers of other languages programs.   Students are counted as achieving educational gain if they exceed established reference points in their standardized test scores between enrollment and re-testing.

Other Outcomes (2003-04 through 2006-07)

The following outcome measures are consistent with the National Reporting System (NRS) for adult education.  Students in adult secondary (high) programs are considered to have a primary goal of obtaining a secondary or high school equivalency diploma.  For all other outcomes, the student achievements correlate to the students indicating those goals at intake.

Special Education Enrollment and Tuition

 

When placing students, districts select among classrooms with different student/staff ratios consistent with each student’s Individualized Education Program (IEP).  The following are four of the alternatives:

o      12 students per teacher plus one paraprofessional (12:1:1)

o      6 students per teacher plus one paraprofessional (6:1:1)

o      12 students per teacher plus four paraprofessionals (12:1+1:3)

o      8 students per teacher plus 1 paraprofessional (8:1:1)

 

An addendum of enrollment and tuition information will be attached to this report if this BOCES provides other options of student/staff ratios.

 

Tuition rates exclude the costs of related services, preschool and summer school programs.  BOCES with multiple tuition rates for a program have calculated an average rate.  Data source: 602 Report
