Not later than one year after the adoption of rules under division (D) of section 3301.0712 of the Revised Code and at least every sixth year thereafter, upon recommendations of the superintendent of public instruction, the state board of education shall establish a set of performance indicators that considered as a unit will be used as one of the performance categories for the report cards required by section 3302.03 of the Revised Code. In establishing these indicators, the superintendent shall consider inclusion of student performance on assessments prescribed under section 3301.0710 or 3301.0712 of the Revised Code, rates of student improvement on such assessments, the breadth of coursework available within the district, and other indicators of student success.

Beginning with the report card for the 2014-2015 school year, the performance indicators shall include an indicator that reflects the level of services provided to, and the performance of, students identified as gifted under Chapter 3324. of the Revised Code. The indicator shall include the performance of students identified as gifted on state assessments and value-added growth measure disaggregated for students identified as gifted.

For the 2013-2014 school year, except as otherwise provided in this section, for any indicator based on the percentage of students attaining a proficient score on the assessments prescribed by divisions (A) and (B)(1) of section 3301.0710 of the Revised Code, a school district or building shall be considered to have met the indicator if at least eighty per cent of the tested students attain a score of proficient or higher on the assessment. A school district or building shall be considered to have met the indicator for the assessments prescribed by division (B)(1) of section 3301.0710 of the Revised Code and only as administered to eleventh grade students, if at least eighty-five per cent of the tested students attain a score of proficient or higher on the assessment.

The state board shall adopt rules, under Chapter 119. of the Revised Code, to establish proficiency percentages to meet each indicator that is based on a state assessment, prescribed under section 3301.0710 or 3301.0712 of the Revised Code, for the 2014-2015 school year and thereafter by the following dates:

(A) Not later than December 31, 2015, for the 2014-2015 school year;

(B) Not later than July 1, 2016, for the 2015-2016 school year;

(C) Not later than July 1, 2017, for the 2016-2017 school year, and for each school year thereafter.
