  1. Single versus multiple prior based targets • Low ELA achieving student in 2014 (below prof/360) who had high growth in 2015 (SGP=92) raising their status (proficient/450). • Top Figure: Using only 2015 Score to set target for 2016 gives a scale score target of 465 (SGP 40 with 1 prior). • Bottom Figure: Using both 2014 and 2015 Scores to set student target for 2016 gives a scale score target of 445 (SGP 40 with 2 priors) . • Ignoring the 2014 scale score sets too high a target for the student.
