The shaded band is this school's normal range. If nothing about how it works changes, nearly every future year should land inside it. Zero means the typical student just meets the state standard. The small numbers under the years are how many students were tested.

Measured against the grade bars

The state's English test uses one scale for every grade, so a score means the same thing in grade 3 as in grade 8.

All students

  • 7th The average 7th grader meets the grade 7 bar. 2553 vs. 2552.
  • 8th The average 8th grader scores 13 points under the grade 8 bar. 2554 vs. 2567.
