Text (slide 11):
"Adequate Yearly Progress" (AYP)
Student achievement is judged relative to annual measurable objectives to determine if the school or LEA made AYP.
The school and each subgroup of students must:
Meet the annual objective, OR
Decrease the percent of students who are not proficient by 10%
and
make progress on another indicator.
Method for calculating AYP ensures that schools and districts are focused on the accountability goal — all students proficient.
