[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What does “norm grade level mean” mean? Is that the school average?[/quote]

It's that mean score for students in that grade the last time they did a norm study to establish an average of a representative group of students. That was in 2020.[/quote]

So like a national average?[/quote]

Sort of.

They took data from a subset of students from across the country over a couple year period beforehand and analyzed that to come up with the 2020 percentile tables that have been used since.  The norm grade level mean would be the average from that analysis (for a particular grade, for the season -- fall, winter or spring), so you could call it a national average, but it would be from something like 7 year old data, not from tests taken this year.

The [i]district[/i] grade level mean is the average for MCPS [i]this[/i] year & season (or whenever the test was taken by the student, in the case of the historical scores shown)[/quote]
