Schools on School
Improvement 2005-2006 Word Document Download PDF 158 KB This is the current listing of schools, and districts, in Kansas that did not make adequate yearly progress (AYP) for two consecutive years and therefore now have a status called, "On School Improvement." One of the many reasons why a school might not make adequate yearly progress includes that test scores are reported out by sub-groups of students – students who are economically disadvantaged (on free and free and reduced lunches); students from different ethnicity groups; students who are limited English proficient; and students who are Special Education status. The No Child Left Behind legislation also requires that 95% of the students in each sub-group at the grade level where students are tested, must be present to take the assessment. If less than that number is tested, then a school might not have made AYP and therefore is put on School Improvement. If your school is on this list, please contact your principal to learn the specifics and what kind of plan the school is developing to make improvement. |

Supplemental Services
Providers 05-06 Download PDF 35 KB Word Document Under No Child Left Behind legislation if a school does not make AYP (Adequate Yearly Progress) for two consecutive years the school is put on school improvement and school choice. If AYP is not met after three years, children can have access to supplemental services that consist of additional academic support outside school time such as tutoring programs – which will be paid for by the school. The state determines who the supplemental service providers will be. This is a list of the current providers in Kansas, as of September, 2003. The brochure to the left of this list describes what this process means. Contact your child's principal to see if your child is eligible to receive these services. |
