Notes:


1) These statistics may differ from those in report cards and AYP ratings. They were calculated based on where students tested regardless of school entry date. Home school students, students with incomplete scores, and students who took the test with a non-standard accommodation were excluded.

2) If the number tested is less than 10, no other statistics appear.

3) Only 5th and 8th graders took the Writing test in 2009.
