The following table presents the weighted student response and exclusion rates for the writing computer-based assessment (WCBA). The exclusion rates give the percentage of students excluded among all eligible students. Excluded students must be either students with disabilities (SD) or English language learners (ELL). The response rates indicate the percentage of students assessed among those who were intended to take the assessment in participating schools. Thus, students who were excluded are not included in the denominators of the response rates.
Grade | School type and geographic region |
Weighted student response rates (percent) | Weighted percent of all students who are SD and excluded | Weighted percent of all students who are ELL and excluded |
