Academic Achievement is a measure of the end of year state assessment called the Smarter Balanced test (SBAC). On a grading scale of 1 through 4, a student receives a 3 for proficient or a 4 for advanced. This is also referred to as "on grade level" or "above grade level."

For Middle Schools, this number includes students who take the end-of-course exam.

Differences may suggest some student groups are not getting the support to succeed. Note: Subgroups that are less than 25 in the total number of students tested are not included here.

  2. Adequate Growth Percentile (AGP): tells us how many students are growing fast enough to be on grade level within three years.
