What this means: About 26% of students here test proficient in math and reading, below the roughly 47% typical for Alaska schools with a similar share of low-income students. BeatsExpectations compares each school with others at the same poverty level, not by raw scores, so a school lands here when its results trail those comparable schools, which is not the same as having low scores. A higher-scoring school can still fall in this tier if similar schools score higher still.
BeatsExpectations runs a per-state regression of proficiency on free/reduced-lunch share, then scores each school by residual. How this is calculated →

How to read these scores
What is AK STAR + Alaska Science?
AK STAR + Alaska Science is the statewide standardized test administered by Alaska public schools.
What does "% Advanced + Proficient" mean?
It is the share of students at the school who performed at grade level or above on the test, summed across the top two of four performance levels. A higher number is better.
How should I read a single score?
Each percent represents the share of tested students who performed at grade level or above. Compare the school number against the state, district, and county averages on this page to see whether it is above or below typical.
How is the state average calculated?
It is a weighted average, not a simple average of each school's number. We multiply each public school's score by how many of its students tested, add those together for all schools in Alaska, and divide by the total students tested that year. This way a big school with 1,500 students counts more than a small school with 50 students, which is the right way to ask "how did the typical student do this year?". District and county averages on this page use the same method, just scoped to that district or county.
Where does this data come from?
Alaska Department of Education and Early Development, AK STAR (ELA + Math grades 3-9) and Alaska Science (grades 5, 8, 10). School-level All Students rollup scraped from the per-school assessment-results pages on education.alaska.gov. Headline metric is the cumulative "Advanced + Proficient" rate (top 2 of 4 levels).
How often is it updated?
AK STAR + Alaska Science is administered once a year (spring). Results are released by the state in the summer or early fall. We refresh this page after each annual release.
