NAEP Technical DocumentationWeighted Student Counts and School Response Rates for Fourth-Grade School Samples by Participating Jurisdiction

The following table presents weighted student counts from the fourth-grade sample of schools, using the frame enrollment divided by the school probability of selection as the weight. The weighted aggregations for the eligible schools for each jurisdiction are estimates of the total population of students in the grade within each jurisdiction.

Weighted student counts and response rates of eligible sampled schools, grade 4 state assessment, by participating jurisdiction: 2003
