State AYP results have been coming out for a while now, revealing that an increasing number of schools are missing the NCLB benchmark.  Here's a random selection of a few recent ones: 

In Oregon, more than 1 in 3 schools failed to make AYP. (Via Education Daily.)

In Minnesota, nearly half of the schools failed to make AYP, including two-thirds of middle schools/junior highs and 58% of charter schools. (Via ECS clips.)

In Hawaii, 60% of the state's schools failed to make AYP, including 37 of the state's 42 public high schools missed AYP. Aloha. (Via Education Daily.)

In some states, we're well on our way to branding nearly every school a failure. Wait a minmute -- did I say, "nearly every school"? It must be time to tighten up some of those loopholes and start gunning for districts and states that are soft on accountability.
