Corrective Action This school has failed to make AYP for four years. Parents at this school have the option of
transferring their child to a higher performing school or accepting Supplemental Educational Services for their
child. This school must also implement a recommended improvement strategy such as instituting a new
curriculum or restructuring the internal organization of the school.
