AYP

• AYP (Adequate Yearly Progress) is a federal
  accountability reporting requirement under the No
  Child Left Behind Act. (Started 2002-03)
• Under AYP, ODE reports on whether schools and
  districts have made adequate progress toward the
  goal of having all students meet rigorous
  academic standards.
• Each year, the performance of all students in the
  school and district, as well as subgroups of
  students, is measured against annual performance
  targets.
• States must identify for improvement any school
  or district receiving Title I funds that does not
  meet adequate yearly progress for two consecutive
  years in the same content area.

Report Card

• In law, they are actually named school and
  district performance reports. These reports
  provide educators with an opportunity to
  communicate directly with parents and community
  members about how local schools are performing.
• The form of the Report Cards is used to meet
  state and federal reporting requirements.
• Schools designated as In Need of Improvement
  shall file a school improvement plan with the
  Superintendent of Public Instruction and with the
  school district board.
