• Exemplary acknowledges the top-performing 10% of schools.

• Comprehensive identifies (A) schools in the lowest-performing 5% and (B) schools with overall performance above the lowest-performing 5% that have one or more individual student groups who remain Targeted, even after completing a full Targeted school improvement cycle.

• Intensive identifies schools that remain in the lowest-performing 5%, even after completing a full Comprehensive Support school improvement cycle.

• Targeted recognizes schools with overall performance above the lowest-performing 5% but with individual student groups performing similarly to the lowest 5%.

• All other schools receive a Commendable designations.
