Differentiated Accountability (DA) is the Iowa Department of Education’s new accountability and support system for school districts and AEAs. DA is replacing the previous 5-year site visits that consisted of record reviews and interviews with teachers, students, parents and board members. Changes were made to move beyond compliance into a continuous improvement model that improves outcomes for all of Iowa’s students.
For more information, review this DA program overview that includes resources and professional learning opportunities and visit the Iowa Department of Education’s website.
Iowa administrators and teacher leaders are invited to three professional learning events on the components and interconnectedness of Chapter 62/Early Literacy Initiative, Teacher Leadership Compensation, Multi-Tiered Systems of Support, Differentiated Accountability, Collaborating for Kids and Standards and Curriculum.
Impacting Literacy Leadership - Making the Connections
This one-day training provides an overview of the components of Multi Tiered Systems of Support while connecting this learning to Early Literacy Implementation and Differentiated Accountability. Members from the Iowa Department of Education and state AEAs will lead collaborative learning around the continuous improvement tools that have been developed through the Collaborating for Iowa's Kids (C4K) and the Teacher Leadership Structure. Action planning for implementation will also be integrated throughout the day so administrators can think about how to leverage their teacher leader resources back in their buildings.

The Statewide School Improvement Team has successfully completed a majority of the pilot intensive onsite school visits. The team has received a significant amount of feedback, which has led to several process adjustments and a pool of positive support responses. Based on the status of the pilot and feedback from participants, a statewide rollout has been scheduled, along with a series of Zoom meetings this spring. These sessions will be recorded and posted with all of the complete Differentiated Accountability activities on the DE website.
Differentiated Accountability is a system designed to replace the former mandate of on-site visits every five years by the Department. The short concept of Differentiated Accountability, or DA, is that site visits are now focused on need. If a district is performing well, it may receive no visit, enabling districts with more needs to receive more coaching. Instead of a prescriptive, top-down list of corrective actions, the school will be an active participant in determining what’s working well, what needs improvement, and how to remedy it.
