Sources, definitions & limitations Read the context →
Public-school results come from California Department of Education data; private-school enrollment and staffing come from NCES. Availability varies by school and measure. An em dash means a measure is unavailable on this comparison.
Students per teacher is a staffing ratio, not class size. Total tested counts student-subject records, not individual children. Cohort growth and grade-to-grade gaps describe different measures.
