Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) for our Target Schools
What is Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP)?
- AYP means “Adequate Yearly Progress” as defined by federal and state laws. Beginning with 2003 testing, the AYP criteria were revised to reflect the requirements of NCLB legislation and include the following:
- Schools must meet the 95% participation rate on state assessments, in the aggregate and for all subgroups.
- Schools must meet the target of 70% of students meeting or exceeding state standards in reading and mathematics only, in the aggregate and for all subgroups.
- Schools must meet the 90% attendance rate for elementary and middle schools and a 78% graduation rate for high schools.
