Note: Data are reported only for numerically significant subgroups. Ethnic/racial and socioeconomically disadvantaged subgroups meeting the following criteria are considered numerically significant: the group (1) contains at least 100 students with test scores included in the API (valid scores) OR (2) comprises at least 15% of the school population tested and contains at least 50 students with valid scores.
 
"N/A"  means a number is not applicable or not available due to missing data.
"N/R"  means required enrollment data are not reported.
" * "  means this API is calculated for a small school district, defined as having between 11 and 99 Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR) test scores included in the API (valid scores). APIs based on small numbers of students are less reliable and therefore should be carefully interpreted.
"A"  means the school or subgroup scored at or above the statewide performance target of 800 in 2004.
"I"  means the school has some invalid data, and CDE cannot calculate a valid similar schools rank for this school.
