Who determines whether a district or school has made AYP?
NCLB is clear that responsibility for defining AYP and making AYP determinations for school districts lies with the State. NCLB also is clear that school districts are responsible for making AYP determinations for their schools. However, the State is responsible for monitoring the process and ensuring that determinations are made uniformly and accurately.
