  • State Performance Plan and Annual Performance Report

State Performance Plan and Annual Performance Report

State Performance Plan (SPP) and Annual Performance Report (APR)

Every state must develop and submit for federal approval a State Performance Plan (SPP) that outlines the actions the State will take to implement the purposes of the IDEA and that explains how the State will evaluate its progress in these areas. In an Annual Performance Report (APR), each State must report on its progress and on the progress of children with disabilities toward meeting the goals established in the APR.

Public Reporting of IDEA Part B Data

Each State must also report annually to the public on the performance of each public educational agency (PEA) located in the State on the targets in its Part B – SPP as soon as practicable, but no later than 120 days following the State’s submission of its Part B – APR to the United States Department of Education.

State & PEA Performance by Indicator

Arizona’s Progress on the SPP/APR Indicators

Each year, states must report against the targets established for the 17 indicators in its SPP/APR. The 2020–2021 school year began the State's most recent six-year reporting cycle (FFY 2020–2025). The following document reports on Arizona's progress on this new cycle and offers relevant data from previous years as a comparison.

Public Reporting of SPP/APR Targets

Between September 2021 and January of 2022, ADE/ESS initiated a series of stakeholder meetings to establish new targets for the new six-year SPP/APR package (FFY 2020-FFY 2025). Surveys were distributed after the meetings for stakeholders to vote on the proposed targets. The results of these surveys can be found in the documents below.
