Notes
2021 M-STEP: Use estimations with caution and do not compare to prior years. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, fewer students underwent testing compared to prior years, and many school districts had additional data suppressed. Students did not take the M-STEP in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic. More detailed data for districts can be found at mischooldata.org.
In September 2018, new disclosure avoidance rules were applied to M-STEP data. As a result, districts with fewer than ten test-takers, or where the number of students not meeting proficiency was suppressed, were excluded from analysis. County and city totals are estimations that may exclude some districts, and careful consideration should be taken when comparing data across years due to the changes in data disclosure.
County totals do not add up to the statewide total because of districts that are excluded in the county estimations. The statewide total does include all districts.
