Do schools and districts have to reach all performance targets in both reading and math to make AYP?
The school and district overall, as well as any disaggregated groups with 30 students or more, must first try to meet the grade spans proficiency targets in both reading and math to make AYP. If a district or school does not meet a performance target, it may be able to make AYP if it reduces its percent non-proficient by 10 percent compared to the prior year through Safe Harbor or Matched Safe Harbor, discussed below. All districts and schools must reach either proficiency targets or non-proficiency targets for districts and schools to make AYP.
