Spring 2026 figures are Pre-Appeals. ADE has not yet run the appeals and corrections cycle for this release, so these numbers can still change. At this stage ADE's statewide total also runs slightly above the sum of its own districts (between +0.006% and +0.184% depending on the subject), because some test records are not yet attributed to a school. Spring 2024 and Spring 2025, both final releases, reconcile exactly. How we handle this.

Three-year trajectory

Where students landed

The headline number only counts Levels 3 and 4. Movement from Level 1 to Level 2 is real progress that the headline hides, so the full distribution is shown. Above each bar, ▲ is the share ready or exceeding (Levels 3–4); below it, ▼ is the share in need of support or close (Levels 1–2).

Compared with

Every figure below is ADE's own published figure for that grain — not a total we computed by adding up schools.

Position statewide

The whole distribution, with this school marked. We report a quartile band rather than a precise rank: across a field this tight, a rank implies a precision the data does not support.

Schools like this one

Comparing a school only with the state average tells you as much about who enrolls there as about what it does. These are the 12 closest schools by economic disadvantage, size, English-learner share, special-education share and grade span.

12 nearest schools in the same grade-span band, by rank-normalized distance over economically-disadvantaged % (MSI), log enrollment (SIS), English-learner % (MSI) and special-education % (MSI), equally weighted. Peer medians are computed, not published by ADE; peers below 30 tested students are excluded and counted above.
