Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP)
Under the federal No Child Left Behind Act, all public schools must have 100 percent of tested students meet state standards in reading and math by 2014. In the interim, states must set gradually increasing targets. This year in Illinois, a school is deemed to be making Adequate Yearly Progress if it meeds the following conditions:
- At least 95 percent tested in reading and mathematics for every student group.
- At least 70 percent of all tested students must meet or exceed state standards on the reading and math tests.
- A subgroup that falls below 70 percent can claim “safe harbor” from failing adequate yearly progress if its percent of kids meeting or exceeding state standards improves by 10 percent from the previous year.
- High schools must have a graduation rate of at least 78 percent.
- Elementary, junior high and middle schools must have an attendance rate of at least 90 percent.

This school has met all of the requirements for adequate yearly progress.

Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) Guidelines
Under the federal No Child Left Behind Act, all public schools must have 100 percent of their tested students meet state standards in (making Adequate Yearly Progress in) reading and math by 2014. In the interim, states must set gradually increasing targets to ensure that goal will be met. This year in Illinois, a school is deemed to be making adequate yearly progress if it meets all of the following conditions:
- At least 95 percent tested in reading and mathematics for every student group. If the current year participation rate is less than 95 percent, this condition may be met if the average of the current and preceding year rates is at least 95 percent, or if the average of the current and two preceding years is at least 95 percent. Only actual participation rates are printed. If the participation rate printed is less than 95 percent and yet this school makes AYP, it means that the 95 percent condition was met by averaging.
- At least 70.0 percent meeting/exceeding standards in reading and mathematics for every group. For any group with less than 70.0 percent meeting/exceeding standards, a 95 percent confidence interval was applied. Subgroups may meet this condition through Safe Harbor provisions. ***
- For schools not making AYP solely because the IEP group fails to have 70.0 percent meeting/exceeding standards, 14 percent may be added to this variable in accordance with the federal 2 percent flexibility provision.
- At least 90 percent attendance rate for non-high schools and at least 78 percent graduation rate for high schools.
* Includes only students enrolled as of 05/01/2009.
** Safe Harbor Targets of 70.0 percent or above are not printed.
*** Subgroups with fewer than 45 students are not reported. Safe Harbor only applies to subgroups of 45 or more. In order for Safe Harbor to apply, a subgroup must decrease by 10 percent the percentage of scores that did not meet state standards from the previous year plus meet the other indicators (attendance rate for non-high schools and graduation rate for high schools) for the subgroup. For subgroups that do not meet their Safe Harbor Targets, a 75 percent confidence interval is applied. Safe Harbor allows schools an alternate method to meet subgroup minimum targets on achievement.
