How to read these scores
What is MAAP?
MAAP is the statewide standardized test administered by Mississippi public schools.
What does "% Proficient + Advanced" 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.
What does 30.5% mean for English Language Arts at Nettleton Junior High?
It means about 30.5 percent of students tested at Nettleton Junior High performed at grade level or above on the MAAP English Language Arts test in 2023-24. The statewide average for Mississippi that year was 45.9%. The other students fell into the lower performance levels.
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 Mississippi, 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?
Mississippi Department of Education, Mississippi Academic Assessment Program (MAAP). School-level All Students subgroup from the MDE Report Card data download. Headline metric is the cumulative "Proficient + Advanced" rate (top 2 of 5 MAAP levels: Minimal / Basic / Passing / Proficient / Advanced).
How often is it updated?
MAAP 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.
