NOTE: NAEP reading cut scores at grade 4 are 208 for Basic and 238 for Proficient. The following states' grade 4 reading test data were not used in the analysis or received special treatment: CT, LA, and OH—standard used for mapping is different from the standard specified as the AYP level; CA and LA—reading data not available for the state assessment, so English Language Arts (ELA) data used; AL, AZ, DE, HI, IL, IN, KS, MD, MN, MO, NH, NM, OK, OR, PA, RI, SD, TN, UT, VA, VT, and WV—state assessment data not available; NE—results deleted because state results are based on assessments developed by each local education agency. For more information about missing states and exclusion rates in each state, see A Profile of State Assessment Standards. For more information on the number of schools in the 2003 NAEP sample, see Appendix A (745K PDF) in The Nation's Report Card: Reading 2003.
