The API scale is 200-1000.
Only scores for 2nd through 8th grade students
who were in the district the prior year are included in the calculation.
Statewide rankings are in
deciles with 10 being the highest and 1 the lowest. Each decile contains
10% of all schools.
Schools scoring 800 or more
are not assigned a growth target, but are expected to maintain an API
at or above 800.
