Abstract	The Optional Extended Year Program (OEYP), funded by a grant from the state, provides extended learning opportunities for students in kindergarten through grade 12 (K-12) who are at risk of academic failure. The primary focus of an OEYP is to reduce and ultimately eliminate the need for student grade-level retention by providing additional instructional time for students to master the state's academic performance standards. OEYP activities occur outside the regular school day. OEYP is designed to accommodate four school-day options: (1) extended day, (2) extended week, (3) intersession for year-round schools, and (4) summer school. A school district may provide instructional services during any of these programs for a period of time not to exceed 30 days. Participating students must receive a minimum of 240 minutes of instruction to meet Texas Education Agency (TEA) reporting requirements. Since 1993, the Austin Independent School District (AISD) has used the OEYP to reduce the number of AISD students at risk of academic failure. This report summarizes AISD's 2005-2006 school year activities and student performance outcomes for the state-funded optional extended year program. (ERIC).
