Under the federal No Child Left Behind Act, schools are measured each year to see if they made adequate yearly progress based on scores on state tests – in Virginia, the Standards of Learning. To “make AYP” a school must pass on all measures.
To use this database: Enter a school name. NOTE: Enter the main name of the school only; do not add "high school, "elementary school," etc. For example, type "Granby," not "Granby High School."
Detail explanations:
AYP Elements Passed = Out of 29 targets.
Not in improvement = School is not required to implement an improvement plan.
Improvement and Sanction = Schools that fail to make AYP for multiple years are put on a path to improvement that includes sanctions if the school receives Title I funding.

What were the 29 standards?
We should be able to view all the schools for each city on one screen at the same time. This link is poorly set up.
More info is needed.
What sub group caused failure?
