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, are 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.
