SYCAMORE – The Sycamore School District 427 board will get a preview today of what it should expect when the state releases Adequate Yearly Progress numbers this month.

Superintendent Kathy Countryman and Kristine Webster, director of curriculum, will share some of the district’s AYP forecast with board members as schools around the state aim to have 92.5 percent of their students meet or exceed the proficiency level on standardized reading and math tests.

The lofty goal will be difficult to attain, as only 19 of 47 DeKalb County public schools met the lesser AYP benchmark of 85 percent last year.
