Middle Cities Education Association
Creating Opportunities for the Urban Learner

This toolkit is designed to help educators address communications regarding Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) as required by the federal No Child Left Behind Act.  The toolkit includes key messages, questions and answers, communication strategies, sample communications and a glossary of terms.

The toolkit is available below in Microsoft Word and Adobe pdf.  Districts should feel free to revise the toolkit to fit their needs and the needs of their communities.

If you have any questions, concerns or suggestions regarding the toolkit, please contact Laura Wotruba at 517.347.0292 or lwotruba@middlecities.org
