[quote=Anonymous]Only one ACPS school (Charles Barrett) made AYP last year. It's not that all of the schools that had been making AYP suddenly got bad, it's that the as part of No Child Left Behind, the percentage of students who had to pass each subject area increased significantly, so even schools with high passing rates didn't have passing rates that were high enough, and therefore they "failed" to make AYP. Across the state of Virginia there was a huge drop in the number of schools making AYP. It's one of the reasons many people are clamoring for a revision to NCLB, and Virginia is one of many states that is asking for a waiver from NCLB. Bottom line, if you researched Lyles-Crouch and were happy with the school, there's no reason why you won't still be happy with the school.[/quote]
