Graduation Rates

ESEA and AYP The Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) requires that all: students meet the standards for reading and math by 2014. schools demonstrate adequate yearly progress (AYP) toward achieving that goal.

ESEA and AYP Each state has set incremental benchmarks to reach 100% proficiency by 2014. Reading requirement: 2009-2010: 85.6% students proficient 2010-2011: 90.4% students proficient Math requirement: 2009-2010: 83.0% students proficient 2010-2011: 88.7% students proficient Language requirement: 2009-2010: 75.1% students proficient 2010-2011: 83.4% students proficient

ESEA and AYP Facts Eighth year held accountable for Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA / Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP). 41 targets to meet proficiency benchmarks. Entire student population – or any one of the subgroups – does not meet targets, school is deemed not to have made AYP. AYP is only one measure of a school’s success.
