The following table presents weighted student response and exclusion rates, by school type, for fourth- and eighth-grade private school students in the national science paper-based assessment (PBA) samples. Separate exclusion rates are provided for students with disabilities (SD) and English learners (EL).
A weighted student response rate indicates the percentage of the student population that is directly represented by the assessed students from within participating schools. A weighted exclusion rate indicates the percentage of students in the population that would be excluded from the assessment.
| Grade | School type | Weighted student response rate (percent) | Weighted percentage of all students who were SD and excluded | Weighted percentage of all students who were EL and excluded |
