AYP was introduced into federal law in the 1994 reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. Under NCLB, AYP is used to determine if schools are successfully educating students. NCLB requires states to use a single schools accountability system to determine whether all students, as well as individual subgroups, are making progress toward meeting state academic content standards.

Progress on those standards must be tested yearly in grades 3 through 8 and in one grade in high school.
