The School Progress Index (SPI) is a new accountability system that helps educators gauge how well a school is progressing in its quest to
improve performance for all students. The yardstick for every school is set against its own ability to reduce by half in six years the portion of
students not achieving proficiency, with annual improvement targets set for every school and every subgroup individually. For more information,
see the Introduction (page iii).
