Definitions

For the most recent testing period:

Data are provided for each content area for which the State Board of Education has established performance levels. Data are reported as the percent of students achieving at the proficient or advanced level.

Data are disaggregated for specific subgroups (if they are numerically significant at the school level). These subgroups are gender, race/ethnicity, English learner, economically disadvantaged status, students with disabilities, and participation in migrant education programs.

In lieu of providing grade level data and the percent of students not tested, a link to the STAR Web site may be provided in the report card.

 

Guidelines and Data Sources

Subject areas and grade levels for which California Standards Test (CST) data will be available and required to be included in reports prepared in the 2007-08 school year include:

  • English-language arts in grades two through eleven for 2004-05, 2005-06, and 2006-07
  • Mathematics in grades two through eleven for 2004-05, 2005-06, and 2006-07
  • Science in grades five, eight, and nine through eleven for 2004-05, 2005-06, and 2006-07
  • History-social science in grades eight and ten through eleven for 2004-05, 2005-06, and 2006-07

Note: Student proficiency levels may differ between the CST and the Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) based on inclusion and exclusion requirements. Scores are not shown when the number of students tested is 10 or less, either because the number of students in this category is too small for statistical accuracy, or to protect student privacy. In no case shall any group score be reported that would deliberately or inadvertently make public the score or performance of any individual student.

Data are reported from the STAR Program [http://star.cde.ca.gov/].
