Upon examination, it appears as though the Asian/Pacific Islander count is an aggregation of the Asian and Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander counts. Due to this potential error, the Asian/Pacific Islander data may be double the actual counts of Asian/Pacific Islander students in the adjusted-cohort graduation rate. Almost all subgroup cohort counts reported at the SEA level are significantly higher than aggregated LEA subgroup counts (5.0 to 11.7% higher).No dataSY1018_FS150_FS151_DG695_DG696_LEA_data_files.zip

As a result, both the content on the tests and achievement standards students must meet to be considered “proficient” vary widely across states. Proficiency rates across different states should not be considered comparable. Uses of the data to compare achievement across states could be done utilizing a school’s relation to their state mean or to a state target, but should be done with caution. For more information, the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) has released a series of studies exploring state assessment comparability utilizing the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP). NCES studies on NAEP and state assessments can be accessed online here: <a href="http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/studies/statemapping/">http://nces.ed.gov/nationsreportcard/studies/statemapping/</a> Additionally, state assessments have changed significantly over time.
