[quote=Anonymous]Understand the concept of AYP -- every year there will be more and more schools that don't make it (even if it's just b/c of ONE group) b/c each year the standards for the pass rates in each group and subject go up. Unless schools can get 100% of their students to pass, they will ALL fail to make AYP in a few years. As for schools that didn't make AYP (mine didn't last year, but did this year), it can be as simple as a single group not meeting the pass rates. For example, Economically disadvantaged kids in 4th grade math did not meet the required pass rate (that's what it was at my kids' school last year) and the WHOLE school is labelled as FAILED TO MAKE Annual Yearly Progress. It's kind of insulting to the rest of the school that they get this label, but that's the insanity of No Child Left Behind.[/quote]
