Can the surveys conclusions be applied to students in schools outside of the 25th to 35th percentile of the School Characteristics Index?
Because the researchers focused solely on schools within the 25th to 35th SCI band, results cannot be generalized to schools outside that band. Educators working in schools with similar student populations may, however, want to consider whether the practices this study found to be correlated with higher EL-API might also work for their schools and students.
