Question about interpreting these. My child's numerical score is a high percentile for current grade level and that same numerical score is around the 50th percentile for another grade level (per score table found on google). Does that mean my child is performing the same as an average student in that higher grade level?

I don't think so. My DD has always been on the high end but the actual number goes down at the new school year, so I think you can only rely on the percentage in the table for that particular grade.

For example, these are made up numbers:

first grade: 25 (98th percentile)
second grade: 22 (99th percentile)

I am just guessing though!

I think the same raw score would be a lower percentile for a higher grade. Look at the norms previously posted.

Real life example:

3rd grader raw score on reading: 591, 94th percentile for winter.

Looking at the rubric, raw score of 591 is 56th percentile for a 6th grader.

Does the raw score indicate my 3rd grader is reading around the same level as an average 6th grader?
