AMOs are unique yearly proficiency targets in reading and mathematics for each subgroup, school and district, as described in Arizona’s Elementary and Secondary Education Act (ESEA) Flexibility Request and can be found using the following link: http://www.azed.gov/nochild-left-behind/files/2012/08/arizona-new-amos.pdf. The calculation for whether a school “Met AMOs” can be found using the following link: http://www.azed.gov/eseawaiver/. AMO targets only include full academic year students (i.e., students who were enrolled in their school within the first 10 days of the school calendar year and stayed continuously enrolled up through the first testing day). The data in the table below is aggregated to the state level. Since the AMO targets are unique at each grade level, the AMO Goals that are reported for reading and mathematics are the average AMO target for a specific content area. For mathematics the average AMO Goal is 71% with a range of AMO targets from 66%-76% and for reading the average AMO Goal is 83% with a range of AMO targets from 79%-87%. 2013 State-Level Accountability* Reading Mathematics Percent Tested Percent Meets and Exceeds Goal: 100% AMO Goal: 83% All Students 99 African American Additional Academic Indicators Percent Meets Exceeds 4 Year Graduation Rate Attendance Rate Goal: 100% AMO Goal: 71% Goal: 80% Goal: 90% 80 99 65 77 94 99 73 99 52 72 95 American Indian/Native Alaskan 99 61 99 43 65 92 Asian/Pacific Islander 100 90 100 85 87 97 Hispanic 99 74 99 57 71 94 White 99 89 99 77 85 95 Students with Disabilities 98 42 98 29 66 93 Subgroup Percent Tested Limited English Proficient 99 57 99 44 24 95 Economically Disadvantaged 99 73 99 56 72 94 Migrant 99 60 99 49 75 Male 99 76 99 64 73 94 Female 99 84 99 67 81 94 Bottom Quartile 100 46 100 24 *All data are based on students enrolled for a full academic year.

For more information about the A-F Letter Grade accountability system go to http://www.azed.gov/research-evaluation/a-f-accountability/. A-F Letter Grades State Accountability for Schools and LEAs Letter Grade A - A school assigned a letter grade of A demonstrates an excellent level of performance. Letter Grade B - A school assigned a letter grade of B demonstrates an above average level of performance. Letter Grade C - A school assigned a letter grade of C demonstrates an average level of performance. Letter Grade D - A school assigned a letter grade of D demonstrates a below average level of performance. Letter Grade F - A school assigned a letter grade of F demonstrates a failing level of performance. The State Board of Education may also assign a school a letter grade of F if they determine that the school is among the "persistently lowest-achieving schools" in the state under the federal school accountability requirements pursuant to section 1003(g) of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (20 United States Code section 6303).
