SAISD Principal’s Meeting September 17, 2003
Office of Research and Evaluation
What is “No Child Left Behind (NCLB)”?
Reauthorizes and amends federal programs established under the Elementary and Secondary Education Act of 1965 (ESEA)
Calls for all public schools to be reevaluated yearly for Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP)
Each state designs its own assessment system for this measure, but it must be approved by the federal government
The provision of “Title I” funding provides the rationale for this federal legislation
Standards for AYP
All schools have two measures:
Elementary and Middle Schools are evaluated on student performance/participation and attendance
High Schools are evaluated on student performance/participation and completion rate
Standards for AYP
Student performance/participation indicators are currently in reading and math. Measurement includes these groups:
All Students African American Hispanic White Economically Disadvantaged Special Education Limited English Proficient (LEP)
When was the AYP standard in place?
In Texas AYP was measured in 2000 – 2001 and in 2001 – 2002 using “Low Performing” status on the state accreditation system to identify schools.
In 2002 – 2003 the state set targets in alignment with the new law (NCLB) and based the standard on the change in the level of difficulty with the new TAKS test.
What is the position of SAISD at this time?
All SAISD schools are Title I schools and are subject to the requirements outlined. This includes alternative schools and “satellite schools.”
We had no schools with two consecutive years of designation.
We have 14 schools identified for AYP Participation , with one of these for AYP Performance as well. Two schools have yet to be evaluated. Current thinking at the state level is that participation/performance will be considered as one measure.

What is the test participation measure (currently considered as part of performance…decision not final)?
This measure is currently under debate between the state and federal government. For the 2003 – 2004 school year, the state’s definition will be used under a “hold harmless” clause. The final decision has not been made for the future.
What is the test participation measure (currently considered as part of performance…decision not final)?
State definition: 95% of all students must take TAKS, SDAA (the State Developed Alternative Assessment for special education), LDAA (the locally designed alternative assessment for special education), or RPTE (the Reading Proficiency Test in English for Limited English Proficient students).
Federal definition: 99% of all students must take TAKS
When are serious sanctions triggered by the designation of “Needs Improvement”?
Sanctions only apply to schools receiving Title I funds.
If a school fails to meet AYP criteria on the same measure two years in a row they enter Year 1 of AYP Improvement Requirements.
If a school fails to meet AYP criteria on the same measure three years in a row they enter Year 2 of AYP Improvement Requirements.
A school is no longer subject to AYP Requirements when they meet the AYP criteria for two consecutive years for the same measure that originally triggered AYP “Needs Improvement Status”.
Campus Level Sanctions in Year 1
Develop/revise a two-year school improvement campus plan
Notify parents of campus school improvement status
Offer school choice, and provide transportation
Establish a district peer review process to provide assistance to the campus
Campus Level Sanctions in Years 2 – 3(All prior year sanctions remain in effect)
Year 2: Supplemental Education Services must be offered to eligible students on the campus at the expense of the district
Year 3: Must do one of the following: replace the school staff relevant to not meeting AYP, implement curricular and staff development activities, significantly decrease management authority at the campus, appoint an outside expert adviser to the campus, extend the school year or school day of the campus, restructure the organization of the campus
Campus Level Sanctions in Years 4 – 5(All prior year sanctions remain in effect)
