Pawnee Grade School
Makes AYP for 2009

Pawnee Grade School announces
students in grades 3-6
have made AYP (Adequate Yearly Progress)
for the 2008-2009 school year.
70% of students in a school must exceed or meet
in reading and mathematics on the ISAT test
to be considered to meet the state's
Adequate Yearly Progress.
This year 85.1% of the Pawneestudents
met or exceeding in reading.
In math, 92% of the Pawnee students
met or exceeded.

Students are tested in early March
in reading and math;
they are also tested in writing and science.

The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 requires all states to measure each public school's and district's achievement and establish annual achievements for the state. The overarching goal is for all students to meet or exceed standards in reading in mathematics by 2014. Each year, the state will calculate a school or district's AYP to determine if students are improving their performance based on the established annual targets.

Congratulations
to the Pawnee Grade School Students and Teachers
For Making AYP!
