SCHOOLIO: Districts

Step 1				Step 2				Step 3
Get Mean Scale Score from line numbers in this data file.				Subtract 'met min' Scale Score. from Mean Scale Score to get Distance From Standard				Multiply Distance From Standard by proportion of students in grade.
Grade	Line number	Mean Scale Score	-	Scale Score: met min	=	Distance from standard	*	(Students tested in grade	/	Students) tested in school	=	Weighted Distance From Standard
3	82398	0	-	2436	=		*	(0	/	60)	=
4	82399	0	-	2485	=		*	(0	/	60)	=
5	82400	0	-	2528	=		*	(5	/	60)	=
6	82401	0	-	2552	=		*	(0	/	60)	=
7	82402	0	-	2567	=		*	(5	/	60)	=
8	82403	2468	-	2586	=	-118	*	(13	/	60)	=	-25.56666659
11	82404	2480	-	2628	=	-148	*	(30	/	60)	=	-74.0
Step 4	SUM Weighted Distance From Standard to get 2019 Difference From Standard for SBE - Olive Grove Charter - Lompoc											-100

2019	Sum	Average
-100	-100.0	-100.0

Simply compute the standard deviation and multiply by 3 and add to the average:

Simply compute the standard deviation and multiply by 3 and subtract from the average:

NOT what school board members want.

NOT what superintendents want.

But that's not what it "wants"...and it's not a coincidence this pattern repeats (repeatedly).
