Notes: Due to rounding, some ethnicity categories in some grades may not sum to 100%.
All percents are calculated based on actual N-counts and are not summed.
*"N" is the number of students who took the end-of-grade test in reading.
When summed, ethnic N-counts may not match the state N-counts because students may not have coded in an ethnic category
or they may have coded in "Other".
Data received from LEAs after October 13, 1998 are not included in this table.

Notes: Due to rounding, some categories in some grades may not sum to 100%.
All percents are calculated based on actual N-counts and are not summed.
When summed, male and female N-counts may not match the state N-counts because students may not have identified themselves as male or female.
Data received from LEAs after October 13, 1998 are not included in this table.

Percent for "Not Exceptional" through "Other Exceptional Classifications" is based on the sum of the students in those categories.
Percent for "Limited English Proficient" and "Section 504" are based on the number tested in the "All Students" category.
2
The standard for grade-level proficiency is a test score at Level III or above on end-of-grade tests in reading and mathematics.
"Not Exceptional", "Academically Gifted", and "Students with Disabilities" do not sum to "All Students" because some students did
not indicate whether or not they were classified exceptional. The "All Students" and "Not Exceptional" categories are added
for the purpose of comparison.
All data rounded to the nearest tenth, therefore exceptional categories may not sum to 100%.
"Number Tested" is the number of students who took the end-of-grade test in reading.
Data received from LEAs after October 13, 1998 are not included in this table.

The standard for grade-level proficiency is a test score at Level III or above on end-of-grade tests in reading and mathematics.
Modifications are available for students with disabilities, limited English proficiency, or temporary disabilities.
All data rounded to the nearest tenth, therefore modification categories may not sum to 100%.
"Number tested" is the number of students who took the end-of-grade test in reading.
Data received from LEAs after October 13, 1998 are not included in this table.

Notes: 1"Number Tested" is the number of students who took the end-of-grade tests in reading. Data are not reported where number tested is fewer than five.
2 The standard for grade-level proficiency is a test score at Level III or above in end-of-grade tests in both reading and mathematics.
The ethnic categories may not sum to the "Total Number Tested" because students may not have coded in an ethnic category.

Notes: "Number Tested" is the number of students who took the end-of-grade tests in reading. Data are not reported where number tested is fewer than five.
2 The standard for grade-level proficiency is a test score at Level III or above in end-of-grade tests in both reading and mathematics.
The ethnic categories may not sum to the "Total Number Tested" because students may not have coded in an ethnic category.
†Denotes a charter school. For reporting purposes the charter school name has been abbreviated. The complete charter school name can be found in the Appendix.
Data received from LEAs after October 13, 1998 are not included in this table.
