Performance Index is an important indicator of student achievement in the district as it measures the specific achievement level of every student.

Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) is a federally required measure included in Ohio’s accountability system. Every building and district must meet AYP targets that are established for reading and mathematics proficiency and test participation, attendance, and graduation rates.

Value Added represents the progress NAPLS has made with our students since last school year.  “Above” rating indicates greater than one year of progress has been achieved.
