What does 11.8% mean for English Language Arts at Guadalupe School?

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 Utah, 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?
Utah State Board of Education, RISE (grades 3-8) and Utah Aspire Plus (grades 9-10). School-level from the USBE Proficiency Levels xlsx. NCES join via school name (no school code in source). Headline metric is the cumulative "Proficient + Highly Proficient" rate (top 2 of 4 RISE/Aspire levels: Below / Approaching / Proficient / Highly Proficient).
How often is it updated?
RISE / Utah Aspire+ 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.
