School Improvement Program Stages
If a campus meets AYP in the same indicator for which it entered the program, it becomes a
year 2 campus in that particular stage
A campus can be in more than one stage at a time
22
Stage 1
• Parent Notification
– School Improvement Status– Reasons for identification– How the LEA is helping the campus– Opportunities for parental involvement– Option to transfer child to another public school
