“Met standard” is the share of tested students who scored at grade level or above. Points are percentage points: 50% to 60% is 10 points. Regular attendance means missing fewer than 2 days a month. Test results closely follow family income, so compare districts that serve similar students. What do these numbers mean?

What this means

Money spent on each student in one school year ($15,986 state, $2,583 local, $517 federal): teachers, staff, programs and services, not building construction or debt payments. Small districts and those serving more students who need extra help usually spend more per student. More spending is not a rating. What do these numbers mean?
