Re: AYP Plan
I guess if I didn't click on your first link, the fact that you put the same link in the thread three additional times must be some type of educational, learning technique? | |

| Texas Classroom have undergone a radical change in the recent years. A number of student-friendly programs have been introduced to help the students achieve better grades and pass on well to colleges or other professional courses.
All Texas Classrooms and public school districts, campuses and the state are evaluated annually for Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP). The Texas AYP Plan approved by the United States Department of Education (USDE) in June 2003 meets the requirements in the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB). This maintains the integrity of the Texas assessment program and provides a mechanism for evaluating District and Campus AYP.
The AYP reports consist of performance and participation data for Reading/Language Arts and Mathematics (Grades 3-8 and 10), for all students and each student group that meets minimum size criteria in Texas Classrooms. The performance standard is based on test results for students enrolled for the full academic year. The participation standard is based on participation in the assessment program of all students enrolled on the day of testing.
In addition to Reading/Language Arts and Mathematics, AYP will evaluate one other measure-either Graduation Rate or Attendance Rate – based on the grades offered in Texas Classrooms. Graduation rate is the other measure for high schools, combined elementary or secondary schools offering Grade 12, and districts offering Grade 12. Attendance Rate is used for elementary schools, middle or junior high schools, combined elementary or secondary schools not offering Grade 12, and districts not offering Grade 12. | |
