Four-Year Trend Data

Definition of Terms
Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) – determined by the State, it is the percentage required to meet/exceed
standards. AYP 2010-11 = 85%; 2009-10 = 77.5%; 2008-09 = 70%; 2007-2008 = 62.5%
Subgroup – a demographic group consisting of 45 or more individuals
Safe Harbor – allows a subgroup to meet minimum targets on achievement, so long as the subgroup has
existed for two consecutive years. To make safe harbor, the group must decrease (by 10%) the percentage
of those who did not meet standards last year. For example, if 73% of the students did not meet and 27%
did, then the new AYP target for the subgroup is 34.3% based on the following example:
27% (met standards in prior year)
+ 7.3 (10% of those that did not meet for prior year)
34.3% (new AYP target)
Confidence Interval - (a margin of error) is applied to all students and/or subgroups with less than 70%
meeting/exceeding standards (as long as they meet all of the other requirements for PSAE – attendance,
participation and graduation rates).
Educational Planning and Assessment System (EPAS) – designed by ACT, it is a system of regular
assessments that assist in tracking student growth over time and provides opportunities for teachers to adjust
instruction based upon student readiness. This system is comprised of the following assessments: EXPLORE,
PLAN and ACT. Prediction of ACT scores can be determined by monitoring growth on EXPLORE and PLAN.
Two (2) points of growth is possible between EXPLORE and PLAN (equal to 12 months of instruction), and four
(4) points of growth is possible between PLAN and ACT (equal to 18 months of instruction).
