Beacon Hill Institute Education Assessment Model Ranking

We ranked each district according to two measures:

(Measure 1 - G ) Success in getting students to score in the Advanced or Proficient categories compared to what our Education Assessment Model predicted; and

(Measure 2 - P ) Success in keeping students out of the Warning category, compared to what our Education Assessment Model predicted.

The lower the number assigned to each ranking, i.e., the closer that number is to "1," the higher a school ranks. The school with a “1” ranks first, the school with a “2” ranks second, etc.
