here include Adequate Yearly Progress for No Child Left Behind and Interim Performance Reports with
student performance data on the state-required Kentucky Core Content Test (KCCT). Also located here
are special reports such as KCCT Reading and Mathematics Combined Proficient/Distinguished used for
identification of federal tier status and results from the required norm-referenced test
(Iowa Tests of Basic Skills) at grades 3-7.
Reports
Signed into law in January 2002, NCLB requires states to provide information on

own standards and assessments to make the annual determinations.
