ACCOUNTABILITY:

General accountability holds the district providing primary educational services to the student accountable for the student outcomes. The ISES data elements which hold accountability information are: ACCOUNTABLE_AGENCY and ACCOUNTABLE_SCHOOL.

For school report cards the multi-district authorizer is held accountable for the outcomes of all participating districts. For district level report cards, general accountability is applied where each district is held accountable for their own students participating in the multi-district charter school. Note that no special processing is used for students attending either of the 2 CCDEBs or the 2 Wisconsin State Schools.
