Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) is a method
for determining if schools, districts and the state have made adequate
progress in improving student achievement. AYP is based on participation

elementary and middle schools and, for high schools, graduation rates.

Just for
Parents - Kansas Curricular Standards Guide
The Just for Parents booklets were created by the State Board of
Education to help parents understand the academic expectations that have
been established for their children and the ways they can help their
children achieve those expectations.
Students participate in the
Kansas State Assessments at grades four, five, six, seven, eight, ten
and eleven. Therefore, a Just for Parents booklet was created for each
of those grades, outlining the things students are expected to know and
be able to do in the subjects assessed at those grade levels.
