[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the denominator?

For example, if they are only reporting Math proficiency for those on-level, and leaving out accelerated students, they'd be leaving out the bulk of students by Algebra (a majority in MCPS take that before 9th grade, which is on-level from the state perspective), likely under-reporting proficiency by a considerable amount, as those more Math-capable students almost certainly would show higher rates of proficiency.

If reported, would these and other, more nuanced analyses support a different narrative, with then-different approaches to solutions, than those we tend to see being pushed?[/quote]

You can explore all of this at the district and school level on the Maryland Report Card site: https://reportcard.msde.maryland.gov/

Pick your county and then your school and then drill down into the MCAP tab and you can disaggregate the data in all the ways you asked.[/quote]

They don't have the new data.  Only the 2023-2024 data.[/quote]
