Title I school goes into Title I School Improvement

• AYP measures reading/language arts and math progress by student group against state targets.

Schools, divisions, and the state must meet or exceed the following annual measurable objectives (AMOs) to make AYP.

Determining Adequate Yearly Progress Status

• Two consecutive years of not meeting AYP

• Must be in the same subject

• After two consecutive years of not meeting the AYP standards, LCPS must offer Public School Choice.

• If just one student subgroup does not meet state target in reading/language arts or math, the school does not make AYP.
