| flag50pct | Tested less than 50% of EL population flag
Districts and schools that did not test at least 50 percent of their English learner population on the CELDT in grades 3 through 8 and 11 are assigned an orange performance level (box 180), unless they have a red performance level. The 50 percent determination is based on the number of English learners (i.e., does not include reclassified students) who took the 2015 Smarter Balanced Summative Assessments in mathematics in grades 3 through 8 and 11. |
| nsize_met | Both the current year number of annual CELDT records with a prior score (i.e., currtesters) and the prior year number of annual CELDT records with a prior score (i.e., priortesters) is 30 or more. Except for schools or local education agencies (LEAs) with a 'Y' reported in the ‘flag50pct’ field, both the current and prior number of annual CELDTs must be 30 or more for a 'color' to be displayed
