How can the public get a true picture of schools serving populations with diverse educational needs?
Test results will be disaggregated by gender, race/ethnicity, regular education status (excluding students with disabilities and limited English proficiency), and other demographic factors (when available). These disaggregated data will be provided at our Web site. Although schools will be accountable for the performance of all students, we believe that wide dissemination of disaggregated test results will help the parents and the community better understand the learning of various populations in schools. We hope these data will promote constructive, focused discussions involving school staff and the public in order to devise ways to improve learning of all students in each school.
