How do the various tests contribute to the API calculation?
There are test weights assigned to each test. These weights are the same for every school in the state. However, the content area weights are dependent upon how many valid test scores are received. The content area weights will vary from school to school depending on how many students take the test in that content. The content area weight is the percent that the content test contributes to the overall API. Sites will achieve the greatest gain in the API when students move from the lowest band to the next band.
