The Education Trust
Spring 2003
This concise report by the Education Trust provides a summary of NCLB's adequate yearly progress (AYP) requirements. It provides a clear explanation of AYP, clears up some common myths about what the requirements mean for schools and districts, and outlines some of the challenges that lay ahead. It's a clear and useful tool for practitioners and policy makers who want to make heads or tails of this often-confusing part of NCLB.
