What is AYP and how is it measured?
Under the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) of 2001, states and school districts are required to make annual Adequate Yearly Progress determinations for districts and schools, respectively. The ultimate goal of AYP is to have all students proficient in reading and math by the year 2014. For more information, go to the Colorado Department of Education website at www.cde.state.co.us.
