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 Missouri, 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?
Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education / SAS EVAAS, Missouri Data Visualization Tool (MO DVT). Per-school value-added growth percentile from the public MO DVT API at modese.sas.com. NOTE: This is a GROWTH metric, not a proficiency metric. A "Growth Percentile" of 80 means this school grew faster than 80% of Missouri peer schools on the MAP Grade-Level Assessment over the year — NOT that 80% of students were proficient. School-level MAP proficiency is gated behind the MCDS portal login and is not currently ingested.
How often is it updated?
MO DVT (Growth) 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.
