Accountability The primary goal of California’s accountability system is to measure and report on the academic achievement of California’s 6.3 million public school students enrolled in nearly 10,000 schools in more than 1,000 local educational agencies (LEAs). (An LEA is a school district or a county office of education for purposes of accountability reporting.) The system is based both on state requirements, established by the Public Schools Accountability Act (PSAA) of 1999, and on federal requirements, established by the No Child Left Behind (NCLB) Act of 2001. State, school, and LEA results are released annually as part of the Accountability Progress Reporting system. Accountability Progress Reporting The California Department of Education (CDE) reports both state and federal accountability results under the general heading of the “Accountability Progress Reporting” (APR) system. The APR includes the state Academic Performance Index (API) Base and Growth Reports, the federal Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) Report, and the federal Program Improvement (PI) Report, as listed below. 2006-07 APR System State Accountability Requirements 2006 API Base Report (March 2007 release) 2007 API Growth Report (August 2007 release) Federal Accountability Requirements 2007 AYP Report (August 2007 release) 2007-08 PI Report (August 2007 release) State Requirements: Public Schools Accountability Act of 1999 State accountability results focus on how much schools are improving in year-to-year academic growth. The API is the cornerstone of the state’s academic accountability requirements. Its purpose is to measure the academic performance and growth of schools. Academic Performance Index The API is a numeric index (or scale) that ranges from a low of 200 to a high of 1,000. A school’s score or placement on the API is an indicator of a school’s performance level. The statewide API performance target for all schools is 800. A school’s growth is measured by how well the school is moving toward or past that goal. 45
