AMAO Improvement Plan Context ODE determines the targets for each of the Annual Measureable Achievement Objectives (AMAO) Districts must meet all three AMAOs each year in order to meet the Title III accountability requirements. If a Title III district does not meet all AMAOs for two consecutive years, it is required to develop an improvement plan that addresses the factors that prevented it from achieving all AMAOs. Districts not rated for AMAO 3, are required to meet AMAO 1 and 2. The plan is to be implemented in the 13-14 school year. If the district fails to meet AMAOs for four consecutive years the state is required to have the district modify its curriculum, program, and method of instruction; or determine whether the district will continue to receive Title III funds related to the failure to meet the AMAOs, and require the district to replace educational personnel relevant to the district’s failure to meet the objectives. [Section 3122(b)(4)]. Please refer to the required criteria above in your improvement plan if your district is in four year status. Previously, districts independently submitted their own local improvement plans without the guidance of a template. The new ODE Office of Education Equity seeks to facilitate the improvement plan process by piloting a new AMAO Improvement Plan.
