Growth Percentile

Growth Percentile

This measure of student longitudinal growth (in CSAP Reading, Math, and Writing) provides the percentile of each student's growth in one year compared to all other students in the state who have the same performance history. This history includes up to 3 years of available CSAP score data for each student. For each school, the median growth percentile determines the schools' performance. Only students who are SAR-included are counted in this measure. CSAP Lectura and Escritura are excluded from this measure.
