Adequate Yearly Progress
Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP)
is a cornerstone of the
federal No Child Left Behind
Act (NCLB) of 2001. In
Michigan, it measures
year-to-year student
achievement on the Michigan
Education Assessment Program
(MEAP) for elementary and
middle schools, or the
Michigan Merit Examination
(MME) for high schools.
Other indicators, such as
the number of students who
participate in the
assessments and graduation
rate for high schools, are
also considered in the
calculation.
