The purpose of the PRS is to provide SLPs an avenue for personal reflection on the quality of their performance across their roles and responsibilities in professional practice in public schools and to assist supervisors/administrators in interpreting the evidence in order to complete meaningful evaluations of SLPs' performance. The outcome of the PRS results in thoughtful and targeted professional development plans that focus SLPs on improvement or expansion of competencies for professional growth. It is also useful for supervisors/administrators to select, retain, and develop qualified personnel and to manage and facilitate their work., submitted to CDE--Exceptional Student Leadership Unit by the PRS Task Force members: Kathleen R.

Research indicates 9th and 10th grade CSAP can reliably predict a range of Colorado ACT (CO ACT) scores for each student. Using the Colorado Growth Model, predictive linkages can be made from the 9th and 10th grade CSAP to the 11th grade CO ACT in each content area tested. This means that every possible 9th and 10th grade CSAP score has a predicted range of CO ACT scores for students making typical growth. Additionally, 9th grade scores can be used to directly predict 11th grade CO ACT performance without waiting for the 10th grade performance data. Including CO ACT scores in the Colorado Growth Model as an 11th grade state assessment also enhances the consistency of interpretations of growth data into upper high school grades., Marie Huchton., "March 4, 2011.", Bibliography: page 14., Online resource; title from PDF cover (viewed March 2016)
