Any district that so elects shall annually file a copy of the lease or agreement with the department.

(7) The department shall include on each report card the percentage of teachers in the district or building who are highly qualified, as defined by the “No Child Left Behind Act of 2001,” and a comparison of that percentage with the percentages of such teachers in similar districts and buildings.

(2) In calculating performance index scores, rates of achievement on the performance indicators established by the state board under section 3302.02 of the Revised Code, and adequate yearly progress for school districts and buildings under this section, the department shall do all of the following:

(a) Include for each district or building only those students who are included in the ADM certified for the first full school week of October and are continuously enrolled in the district or building through the time of the spring administration of any assessment prescribed by division (A)(1) or (B)(1) of section 3301.0710 of the Revised Code that is administered to the student’s grade level;

(b) Include cumulative totals from both the fall and spring administrations of the third grade English language arts achievement assessment;

(c) Except as required by the “No Child Left Behind Act of 2001” for the calculation of adequate yearly progress, exclude for each district or building any limited English proficient student who has been enrolled in United States schools for less than one full school year.
