Overall Design • The overall design of the state accountability system is an improvement model • Campuses and districts must meet either an absolute standard or an improvement standard for each accountability measure at the Academically Acceptable level May 10, 2004 State Accountability System 2

Rating Labels Campuses and districts are assigned the same rating labels: • Exemplary • Recognized • Academically Acceptable • Academically Unacceptable May 10, 2004 State Accountability System 3
