PART TWOAYP Results for 2011

Page 25: 2011 Accountability Results ABCs & AYP Recognitions and  High School Graduation Rates

(1) No Child Left Behind (NCLB) started in 2003. Schools were given 12 years to reach the final goal of having 100 percent of students achieve proficiency by 2014.

(2) Since 2002, the benchmark year, DPI has raised the proficiency targets for reading and math every three years.

(3) 2011 is the ninth year of implementation of NCLB. It is the third time DPI has raised the proficiency targets.

(4) There are 10 possible subgroups evaluated for AYP: All, African American (AA), American Indian (AI), Asian (AS), Hispanic (H), Two or More (TM) (previous Multiracial), White (W), Economically Disadvantaged Students (EDS), Limited English Proficient (LEP) and Students With Disabilities (SWD).

(5) Each valid group of more than 40 students is compared to state proficiency targets as well as the target participation rate of 95 percent in reading and math. In addition, the school must have an attendance rate of more than 90 percent or a graduation rate of more than 80 percent.

(6) A school will make AYP only if all its valid groups pass all the targets. Any schools that fail even one target will not make AYP.

Page 27: 2011 Accountability Results ABCs & AYP Recognitions and  High School Graduation Rates

To make AYP, this sample school must meet all 21 targets. If the school misses one target, even if it’s only by one student, the school will not make AYP for that year.

Challenges and Next StepsWhile substantial gains have been made in many areas, we must focus on the following areas to reach our 2012 academic achievement goals as well as prepare our students for higher education and/or careers:

•Significantly increase the number of proficient students on Reading EOGs•Close the achievement gap •Maintain rigor regardless of state’s elimination of 4 EOCs for 2012: Civics and Economics, U.S. History, Algebra 2 and Physical Science•Accelerate math proficiency gains•Prepare to implement the new Common Core Curriculum in 2012-13•Dramatically decrease the number of schools with a performance composite below 60.
