Details

There were four domains and ten topics for students, and five domains and eleven topics for educators. Survey results ranged from 1-10, with 10 being most favorable and 1 being least favorable. Schools with fewer than 10 respondents overall or in any topic were excluded from relevant district averages. Cells with an asterisk (*) denote less than 10 students or educators in the summary group. Consequently, all data for that group are suppressed. Survey results are included as an indicator of School Quality and Student Success in the Maryland School Report Card (10 of 100 points: 7 from the student survey, 3 from the educator survey).
