AMAO Improvement Plan
• ODE determines the targets for each of the Annual Measureable
Achievement Objectives (AMAO)
– Districts must meet all three AMAOs each year in order to meet the
Title III accountability requirements.
– If a Title III district does not meet all AMAOs for two consecutive
years, it is required to develop an improvement plan that addresses
the factors that prevented it from achieving all AMAOs.
• Districts not rated for AMAO 3, are required to meet AMAO 1 and 2.
– The plan is to be implemented in the 13-14 school year.
– If the district fails to meet AMAOs for four consecutive years the state
is required to have the district
• modify its curriculum, program, and method of instruction;
• or determine whether the district will continue to receive Title III funds
related to the failure to meet the AMAOs,
• and require the district to replace educational personnel relevant to the
district’s failure to meet the objectives. [Section 3122(b)(4)]. Please refer
to the required criteria above in your improvement plan if your district is
in four year status.

AMAO 1:
• Even if the district met the 61% AMAO-1
improvement target, identify specific schools
needing improvement.
• Analyze the Percent AMAO 1 to locate the
percentages that have less than 61% of students
making targeted improvement.
• Indicate below any schools falling below 61%
students showing improvement.
AMAO 2:
•
•
AMAO 3:
Even if the district met the 19% AMAO-2(a)
•
transition target, identify specific schools
needing improvement.
Analyze the Percent AMAO 2B column to locate
•
the percentages that have less than 29% of
students transitioning from ELD programs after
•
5 years of program services.
The percent meeting standard in OAKS
reading and math are shown in the last set
of AMAO columns (AMAO 3 Status).
Indicate schools not meeting AMAO 3
(AMO).
“Not Rated” indicates the entity met due to
N<21 in 1 year or 42 in 2 years. Treat “Not
Rated” as meeting AMAO-3.
