Planning Better and Teaching Better
How much is your school improving from year to year
based on your (API) academic performance index?
The annual API growth target
for a school is 5 percent of the difference between the school’s API and the
statewide performance target of 800.
Schools that meet or exceed an 800 API are expected to maintain that
level of achievement and to continue working to improve the academic
performance of all students.
What will it take for your school to become a state
distinguished school?
If a school meets certain
API participation and growth criteria, it may be eligible to become a California Distinguished
School or a National Blue
Ribbon School. If a school does not meet or exceed its
growth targets and is ranked in the lower part of the statewide distribution of
the Base API, it may be identified to participate in state intervention
programs. These programs are designed to
help the school improve its academic performance.
What is an AYP Report?
The AYP Report was made a
federal requirement by the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act of 2001. This report shows how well schools and school
districts are meeting common standards of academic performance, as measured by
whether the school of school district makes AYP.
What is a PI Report?
The PI (Program Improvement)
Report supplements the AYP Report by providing information on the PI Status of
schools and school districts. A school
or school district that receives federal Title I funds is subject to
identification for PI if it does not make AYP for two years in a row.
