Accountability
The Federal No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act of 2001, requires all states to evaluate the performance of students enrolled in a public school in order to determine whether schools, school districts, and the state have made adequate yearly progress (AYP) towards enabling all students to meet the State's academic achievement standards. AYP measurements target the performance and participation of subgroups based on race or ethnicity, socioeconomic status, disability, and English proficiency. The goal of NCLB is to have 100% of students proficient by 2013-2014.
The data used for the AYP incorporates assessment results in grades 3-10 from FCAT, ESE alternative assessment, and students with limited English proficiency (LEP). Not making AYP does not mean that a school is failing. It means that the school has not met a certain standard for at least one group of students.
