How to read this. Pennsylvania suppresses results for groups with too few students tested. Schools without a reportable Black student result are excluded rather than shown as zero — 1,156 of Pennsylvania's schools have reportable data. Coverage is grades 3–8; high schools are not included. Because every state sets its own proficiency standard, Pennsylvania figures should not be compared against another state's.
