Washington State K-12 Report Card Assessment Data

2024-2025 and 2018-2019 school years of standardized test results from Washington State, disaggregated by school, district, and state levels. The dataset includes student performance percentages and counts, broken down by grade level, gender, race/ethnicity, and special program participation. Columns such as 'PercentLevel4' and 'Count Foundational Grade-Level Knowledge And Above' track proficiency against state standards.

Use Cases

• Analyzing achievement gaps across demographic groups using StudentGroup and StudentGroupType columns.
• Comparing school and district performance over time using SchoolYear, SchoolName, DistrictName, and PercentMetStandard columns.
• Tracking test participation and alternative assessment rates with PercentParticipation and Percent Taking Alternative Assessment columns.
• Assessing grade-level proficiency trends by examining GradeLevel, PercentLevel4, and Percent Consistent Grade Level Knowledge And Above columns.

Strengths

• Provides multi-year coverage with data from the 2018-19 and 2024-25 school years.
• Offers detailed demographic disaggregation with columns for StudentGroup, StudentGroupType, and GradeLevel.
• Includes data at multiple organizational levels (school, district, state) via OrganizationLevel, SchoolOrganizationid, and DistrictOrganizationId.

Limitations

• Conflicting temporal coverage: one source describes 2024-25 data, another describes 2018-19 data, but a complete time series is not confirmed.
• Critical metadata is missing from all sources, including row count, file size, license, and author information.
• Column names and metrics differ between school years (e.g., 'PercentMetStandard' vs. 'Percent Foundational Grade-Level Knowledge And Above'), complicating longitudinal analysis.
