25. 25 Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) Summary Albany Unified School District met 30 of 34 AYP criteria Did not make AYP for 2 years in a row (but different subgroups) Two schools (out of five) made AYP Cornell Elementary Marin Elementary

26. 26 Summary CST AUSD continues to be a high-performing district with high-performing schools and students However, over 20% of our students score at Basic or below in ELA and Math That percentage rises in Science and History/Social Science

27. 27 Summary, continued CAHSEE AUSD exceeds the State in CAHSEE passage rates in both ELA and Math Performance fell slightly for all subgroups in ELA in2011 Performance held or increased slightly for all subgroups in Math (except English Learners)

28. 28 Summary, continued API AUSD has shown steady growth for the past three consecutive years, which tapered off slightly for 2011 Many subgroups lost ground in 2011 A few subgroups grew (ELs and Spec Ed) API went up for 4 out of 6 schools

29. 29 Summary, continued AYP AUSD has made small, steady progress in % proficient or above overall Subgroups are showing some gains, some losses (no apparent pattern) Two subgroups met AYP through Safe Harbor Spec Ed in ELA and Mathematics SED in Mathematics One school (AMS) has entered Program Improvement, Year 1
