Genesee Joint School District makes AYP for 2010/2011

Genesee Joint School District makes AYP for 2010/2011.

Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) is required by No Child Left Behind(NCLB) as a measure of all schools, school districts, and the state in meeting federal benchmarks. Idaho uses the results from the Idaho Standards Achievement Test (ISAT) to calculate AYP. Each year, districts are required to reach state-approved goals in the areas of reading, math and a third indicator (graduation rate). They must also meet goals for the number of students participating on the ISAT. Results of assessments are used to determine whether a school is making Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP).

The goal of NCLB/AYP is to ensure that all students in all schools are academically proficient in math, reading and language arts by 2014. Genesee School District met and exceeded the State goals for 2010/2011.
