Georgia's Single Statewide Accountability System (SSAS) includes an Accountability Profile for every public school and school system in the state. The Accountability Profile is composed of:

1. An absolute performance determination, based on Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP).
2. A Performance Index based on annual growth in academic achievement as measured by statewide assessments.
3. Performance Highlights which provide recognition for schools and school systems based on academic related indicators.

This system's performance on the three components is presented below.

 

1) Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP)

2) Performance Index

The Performance Index shows two components for each school: the percent of schools with the greatest gains and the highest percentage of students meeting and exceeding standards. Criteria were developed utilizing 2005 CRCT (grades 1-8 in Reading, ELA, Math, Social Studies, Science) compared to 2004 CRCT (grades 1-8 in Reading, ELA, Math, Social Studies, Science) and 2005 GHSGT (grade 11 first time test takers - English Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies) to 2004 GHSGT (grade 11 first time test takers - English Language Arts, Math, Science, and Social Studies). Criteria will be based on Full Academic Year (FAY) students.
