Notes

NA - Data is suppressed if the number of students taking the state assessment (denominator) is less than 25 (Prior to the 2023/24 school year, suppression was set at N<10). Additional suppression is applied if the percentage approached zero or 100 using ranges.

GEOGRAPHY - Data reflect the school location, not the student's place of residence.

RACE - Hispanic is reported in the table as a distinct category; students are classified into only one of the reported groups. Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander is not reported for counties as the group is suppressed across all counties.

NOTES - The assessment was canceled in the 2019/20 school year due to the COVID-19 pandemic and data is not displayed in the table for that school year.
