For each public school and public school district, the department shall calculate a unique English language proficiency goal that will result in all students meeting English language proficiency rates by the 2032-2033 school year. In order to achieve that long-term goal, the department shall set interim goals at the five-year mark and ten-year mark. The interim goals shall be set so that by the 2024-2025 school year, each school attains the same English language proficiency rate as the fiftieth percentile school from the 2017-2018 school year. Further, the department shall set unique English language proficiency goals for each school to attain the English language proficiency rate of the seventy-fifth percentile school from the 2017-2018 school year by the 2029-2030 school year. Following the 2024-2025 school year, the department shall reset goals and targets to reach the performance level of the seventy-fifth percentile school from the 2017-2018 school year. Following the 2029-2030 school year, the department shall again set annual targets that will result in all schools meeting the English language proficiency rate.
