Percentages of Students in Urban Districts Identified, Excluded, and Assessed in Mathematics

NAEP has always endeavored to assess all students selected as a part of its sampling process, including students who are classified by their schools as students with disabilities (SD) and/or as English language learners (ELL) or limited English proficient (LEP). (LEP students are sometimes called English language learners). The decision to exclude any of these students is made by school personnel. School personnel are encouraged to use inclusion criteria provided by NAEP and may discuss their inclusion decisions with NAEP field staff. Some students may participate with testing accommodations.

# The estimate rounds to zero.
NOTE: SD = Students with disabilities; ELL = English language learners. Students identified as both SD and ELL were counted only once under the combined SD and/or ELL category, but were counted separately under the SD and ELL categories. Prior to 2005, students were identified as either English language learners (ELL) or non-ELL; in 2005 students were identified as ELL, non-ELL, or formerly ELL. Detail may not sum to totals because of rounding.
