Top to Bottom Ranking Schools are compared to other schools in the state by utilizing z-scores (a statistical measure that describes how far you are from the middle of the pack). Z-scores that are positive, show that you are above the 50th percentile when compared to the state. Z-scores that are negative, show that you are below the 50th percentile when compared to the state.
Z-scores (Standard Deviations) State Average Z-score = Zero -1 -3 -2 1 2 3 0.5 -0.5 98% 84% 68% 32% 50% 16% 2% Percentile State Average Slide courtesy of Doug Greer, Ottawa ISD Z-scores are centered around zero or the “state average” Positive is ABOVE the state avg. Negative is BELOW the state avg.
