  • Adequate Yearly progress (AYP) is a tool that is required by NCLB to determine which school districts and schools are making adequate academic progress, and which schools will be identified as needing improvement, corrective action or restructuring because they are not making the required progress.
  • All states that accept Title I funding (currently every state) must establish AYP goals for every public school district and school in the state.
  • Every state is required to assess, and report on, the AYP performance of every school in the state, even for those schools and school districts that do not qualify as Title I entities.
  • Sanctions will be applied for those Title I schools that fail to make AYP. Sanctions do not apply to non-Title I schools.
