Term | Definition
AYP Year | The year in which measurements were made.
NCLBID | The identification number for schools in the federal accountability system. NCLBIDs change when schools are closed, restructured, or given a fresh start.
School Type | The group against which the school was measured based on school classification. There are four types: elementary, middle/junior, high and other. Other includes all schools that fall into none of the three main types.
Title I This Year | Indicates whether the school received Title I funding in the current year.
MMR | Multiple Measurements Rating (MMR). Used to determine Priority, Continuous Improvement, Celebration Eligible and Reward Schools. This measurement is a combination of Proficiency, Growth, Achievement Gap Reduction and Graduation Rates from the current year.
FR | Focus Rating (FR). Used to determine Focus Schools, this measurement is a combination of Achievement Gap Reduction and Focused Proficiency from the current year.
Designation | The accountability designation resulting from MMR or FR scores. Possible designations are Priority, Focus, Continuous Improvement, Celebration Eligible and Reward Schools.
MMR Eligible | Indicates whether a school had sufficient data to receive an MMR. A school must have at least two of the four measurements in one year to be eligible for an MMR.
MMR Total Points | The total number of MMR points earned across the four domains in the given year.
MMR Possible Points | The total number of MMR points a school could have earned across the four domains in the given year.
FR Eligible | Indicates whether a school had sufficient data to receive an FR. A school must have both measurements in one year to be eligible for an FR.
FR Total Points | The total number of FR points earned across the two domains in the given year.
FR Possible Points | The total number of FR points a school could have earned across the two domains in the given year.
Proficiency [NAME] | The total number of students included in the school’s proficiency calculation. Cell size [NAME].
Proficiency WPC Reaching Target | The weighted proportion of cells (subgroups) that reached their AYP proficiency targets in the school. This is the measurement used to deterimine percentile ranks in the [NAME] domain.
Proficiency Percentile | The percentile rank of the school within its school type in the [NAME] domain.
Proficiency Points | The total number of points earned in the [NAME] domain (Proficiency Percentile X 25 possible points).
Growth Unique Student Count | The total number of students included in the school's growth calculation. Cell size [NAME].
Growth Zscore Average | The average growth Z-score for the school. This is the measurement used to determine percentile ranks in the Growth domain.
Growth Percentile | The percentile rank of the school within its school type in the Growth domain.
Growth Points | The total number of points earned in the Growth domain (Growth Percentile X 25 possible points).
Gap Reduction Unique Student Count | The total number of students included in the school's Achievement Gap Reduction calculation. Cell size [NAME].
Gap Reduction AGR Score | The school's Achievement Gap Reduction score, which is a weighted total of Z-score differentials between subgroups in the school that have an achievement gap statewide and the statewide averages of their higher-performing counterparts.
Gap Reduction Percentile | The percentile rank of the school within its school type in the Achievement Gap Reduction domain.
Gap Reduction Points | The total number of points earned in the Achievement Gap Reduction domain (Gap Percentile X 25 possible points).
Graduation [NAME] | The total number of students included in the school’s Graduation Rate calculation. Cell size minimum=40.
Graduation WPC Reaching Target | The weighted proportion of cells (subgroups) that reached their AYP graduation targets in the school. This is the measurement used to deterimine percentile ranks in the Graduation Rate domain.
Graduation Percentile | The percentile rank of the school within its school type in the Graduation domain.
Graduation Points | The total number of points earned in the Graduation domain (Graduation Percentile X 25 possible points).
Focused Proficiency [NAME] | The total number of students included in the Focused Proficiency Domain. Cell size [NAME].
Focused Proficiency WPC Reaching Target | The weighted proportion of cells (subgroups) that reached their AYP proficiency targets in the seven subgroups used for this domain. This is the measurement used to determine percentile ranks in the Focused Proficiency domain.
Focused Proficiency Percentile | The percentile rank of the school within its school type in the Focused Proficiency domain.
Focused Proficiency Points | The total number of points earned in the Focused Proficiency domain (Focused Proficiency Percentile X 25 possible points).
