Will the States performance targets (AMOs) require that some schools and student groups make a great increase in academic growth, while others will require virtually no growth?
Yes. The percent of proficient students varies from district to district and from school to school. Some groups will not have to increase in performance for several years while others will have to dramatically increase proficiency levels immediately. This is consistent with the goals of No Child Left Behind (NCLB). These are: 1) To increase performance of all students over time, and 2) to close the achievement gap among groups of students as soon as possible.
