| Subject | Expected | Actual | Over/under (pts) | Rank: predicted → actual | Rank vs. demographics |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| English | 58% | 61% | +3.0 ±0.7 | #7 → #7 | #29 |
| Math | 49% | 54% | +4.5 ±1.8 | #10 → #4 | #23 |
Met or exceeded expectations on CMAS, grades 3–8, 2024–2026 combined. District results include district-run neighborhood, choice and magnet schools, but not charter or online schools. ± is a 90% range for normal year-to-year swings.
Growth depends much less on family background than test scores do, so it is the closer measure of what schools add in a given year.
Parents’ education: parents of public-school children (Census ACS 2019–2023, NCES tabulation). For context, not in the prediction: all adults with a bachelor’s degree+ 61%; median household income $145,864.
