Which performance indicators are commonly analyzed to evaluate student outcomes in program assessments?

• A. GPA, class grade, attendance, and daily behavior
• B. School funding levels
• C. Teacher tenure statistics
• D. Student meal program participation

Answer: (A)

Performance indicators analyzed in program assessments are metrics that show what students actually achieve and how they participate in learning. GPA, class grade, attendance, and daily behavior are the most informative because they directly reflect academic achievement (grades and GPA), engagement and learning time (attendance), and classroom functioning (daily behavior). These indicators provide concrete evidence of student outcomes over time. Other options describe resources or program participation (funding levels, teacher tenure, meal program participation) rather than the results of student learning, so they don’t measure outcomes themselves.
