Meeting AYP and Generating API: Preventing “Leakage”
“Leakage”AYP • Two Reasons AYP is not met: • 1. Failure to move Basic students to Proficiency. • 2. Having students “leak” multiple quintile levels out of proficiency.
Figure #2- California Standards Test (CST) Levels: Language Arts
“Checking for Leaks”: • Fleming Middle School • Spring 2004 to Spring 2005 CST results • Targeted Intervention Program in Math • 50 students moved to CST proficiency • 60 students move out of CST proficiency • Net Growth of Proficient students in Math: -10
“Leakage”API • Two Main Reasons API drops: • 1. Failure to move students from Far Below Basic to Below Basic. • 2. Having students “leak” multiple quintile levels.
Academic Performance Index (API) Criteria: Quintile Rankings and Weights Quintile API Weights 5 1000 4 875 3 700 2 500 1 200 Advanced Proficient Basic Below Basic Far Below Basic

Academic Performance Index (API) Criteria: • Quintile Rankings and Weights • Quintile API Weights Gain in API Weight • 5 1000 125 • 4 875 175 • 3 700 200 • 2 500 300 • 1 200 N/A Advanced Proficient Basic Below Basic Far Below Basic
Figure #1- California Standards Test (CST) Levels: Language Arts API For Academic Performance Index (API), greatest gains will occur when moving students from the lowest CST levels due to weighting factors.
Preventing “Leaks”: • Early monitoring of proficient and above students with the periodic assessments in ELA and Math. • Provide early differentiated instruction for struggling proficient students.
