
Of those missing AYP, 66.0% (165) of districts and
4.6% (17) of campuses missed AYP solely due to
the 1% and/or 2% caps in 2010, compared to
53.1% of districts and 6.2% of campuses in 2009.

A total of 111 campuses missed the Mathematics
Performance indicator, the largest category that
failed to Meet AYP standards.

2011 Preview

2011 AYP performance standards increase to:
80% in Reading/English language arts
75% in Mathematics
8

Graduate Rate annual targets may not change;
Participation/Attendance Rate Indicator standards remain unchanged.

Texas Projection Measure (TPM) will continue to be used;
TPM for TAKS-Modified (TAKS-M) grades 3 and 6 will be phased in.

The 2% Federal Cap on TAKS-Modified (TAKS-M) will continue to
include TAKS-M TPM values projected to meet the passing standard.
Graduation Rate Requirement
2011 Federal Requirements
9

To set annual graduation rate targets that reflect continuous
and substantial improvement from the prior year toward
meeting or exceeding the state’s graduation rate goal.

2010 amendment requests were limited to 2009-2010 school
year calculations.

Amendments to 2011 AYP, submitted in December 2010,
request no changes in the graduation rate targets for 2011.
Graduation Rate Goals/Targets
The graduation rate calculations that were approved by the
United States Department of Education (USDE) include five
alternatives for districts and campuses to meet the required
goal and targets:
10
–
4-year longitudinal Annual Graduation Rate Goal of 90.0%.
–
5-year longitudinal Annual Graduation Rate Target of 80%.
Graduation Rate Goals/Targets
–
4-year Annual Graduation Rate Target of 75%
–
4-year Graduation Rate Alternatives:
o Safe Harbor Target
A 10.0 percent decrease in difference between the prior
year 4-year Graduation Rate and the 90.0 percent
statewide goal
11
o Improvement Target
A 1.0 percent increase from the prior year 4-year
Graduation Rate
Graduation Rate Requirement
2012 Federal Requirements
12

2012 AYP will include the evaluation of disaggregated
cohort graduation rate data to determine AYP. All seven
student groups will be evaluated on the goals/targets for
the Graduation Rate indicator.

Currently, the AYP graduation rate calculations used to
determine the Other Indicator results for secondary schools
evaluate the All Student group only.
TPM in AYP
Texas Projection Measure (TPM)
 TPM was used for the first time in 2009 AYP evaluations.
 Students who are projected to meet the standard are counted in
the numerator of the AYP performance rate along with students
meeting the standard, and this new percent is compared with the
AYP targets to determine if the performance standard is met.
 TPM will continue to be used for 2011 AYP evaluations.
13
1% AYP Federal Cap
Students are selected randomly from TAKS-Alt results.
TAKS-Alt results processed for the cap include:

Meet Standard on TAKS-Alt,

On track to meet the TAKS-Alt standard based on the
TAKS-Alt Growth Measure.
Exceptions to the 1% cap will be processed prior to the
Preliminary AYP Release in August 2011.
14
1% AYP Federal Cap
Exceptions to the 1% cap will be applied to school districts :

registered with the TEA Special Education Residential
Facilities Tracking System (RF Tracker) for school year
2010-11.

included in the 2010-11 Directory for Services for the
Deaf in Texas, Regional Day School Programs for the
Deaf (RDSPD).
Other Circumstance Exceptions to the 1% Cap are
allowable and may be submitted as a regular appeal
through the AYP Appeal online system.
15
2% AYP Federal Cap
The 2% Federal Cap process includes:
Step 1) TEA prioritizes campuses by grades served
and proportion of students with disabilities
enrolled. School districts have the opportunity to
review and/or modify the campus rankings.
Step 2) Student results are selected in order to
maximize the number of campuses that Meet AYP
beginning with the campuses assigned the highest
priority.
16
2% AYP Federal Cap
TAKS-M proficient results are selected and processed
for the cap from results that:

Meet Standard on TAKS-M,

Projected to meet the TAKS-M standard based on TPM
(for school year 2010-2011, TPM on TAKS-M is available
for grades 3, 4, 6, 7, and 10 only).
17
AYP Federal Caps
1% and 2% Federal Caps

Reminder: The federal cap relates to counting students
as proficient for AYP purposes only and does not limit
the number of students that may take an alternate
assessment.

State policies and procedures related to assessment
decision-making are detailed in the TEA publication titled
Admission, Review, and Dismissal (ARD) Committee
Decision-Making Process for the Texas Assessment
Program.

AYP Federal Caps
2011 Training on the Federal Cap
 A review of the federal cap process will be provided through

Network (TETN) session on Friday, May 20, 2011 from
9am-12pm. (Event # 10007). Contact your school district or
ESC for more information.
 2011 Campus Priority List for 2% Federal Cap will be
