Requested Amendments to 2011 AYP
Phase-in for the TAKS–M projection equations (TPM)
TPM projections are expected to be reported for TAKS–M reading and mathematics tests in school year 2010-2011 for grades 3 and 6.
The 2011 Federal Cap process will remain the same as 2010 AYP, with the addition of the TAKS-M TPM for grades 3 and 6.
