NAEP Technical DocumentationTotal and Eligible Sampled Schools for the 2017 Private School National Writing Assessment
The following table presents unweighted counts and percentages of ineligible and eligible schools, by private school type, in the fourth- and eighth-grade private school samples. There are considerable differences across private school types at grades 4 and 8. Schools whose private school type was unknown at the time of sampling subsequently had their affiliation determined during data collection. Therefore, such schools are not broken out separately and not included in the following table.
