Some Children Left Behind

According to Dr. Davis' report last night, MTLSD has been given a warning. Under the federal No Child Left Behind Act, which is bipartisan, students with special needs are not meeting their targets. Josephine Posti, Ron Davis, and Tim Steinhauer feel that this legislation is ridiculous. We must have 100% success and that sounds difficult to achieve, they say. Here is part of the presentation made last night. AYP Presentation AYP stands for Adequate Yearly Progress. It turns out that there is an appeal process available, with the deadline being August 7, 2012. 2012 Appeals Process Looks like they missed that. For more information on the AYP, check out the PA Department of Education website.
