| 1 NAEP assesses representative samples of private school students at grades 4 and 8, but results are reported only if at least 70 percent of the schools in the sample participate. Catholic schools are the only type of private schools included in this table, because 2019 participation rates were less than 70 percent for other private school types as well as for total private schools. | ||||||||||||||||
| 2 Scale ranges from 0 to 500. | ||||||||||||||||
| 3 In addition to students with an Individualized Education Program (IEP), also includes students with a 504 plan. | ||||||||||||||||
| 4 The nonresponse rate for free or reduced-price lunch was greater than 15 percent but not greater than 50 percent. | ||||||||||||||||
| NOTE: Includes students tested with accommodations (14 percent of all 4th-graders and 13 percent of all 8th-graders); excludes only those students with disabilities and English language learners who were unable to be tested even with accommodations (2 percent of all 4th-graders and 1 percent of all 8th-graders). Race categories exclude persons of Hispanic ethnicity. Detail may not sum to totals because of rounding. | ||||||||||||||||
