Methodology
How to read the table
Achievement Rank summarizes published assessment results within the named rank pool.
Decoded Rank orders context-adjusted differences within that pool. Context-adjusted differences are descriptive residuals, not causal estimates.
Confidence summarizes tested count, years of data, and participation. It does not measure school quality or guarantee year-to-year rank stability.
