CHECKED AGAINST THE ORIGINAL FILES

Every served value for 2018-19, 2021-22, 2022-23, 2023-24, 2024-25, 2025-26 was re-read from the source file by independent code: 576 of 3,075 cells agree exactly, 0 disagree, 2,499 withheld by the publisher on both sides. Per-cell report.

Definition

English learners (code LY) as a share of October membership, published only when the source determines an exact count. Censored cells are missing here; explicit lower and upper bounds are available separately.

  • Students classified as English learners (ELL code LY) divided by October membership. Race-specific suppressed counts each contribute an interval of zero to nine students. The lower bound sums visible counts; the upper adds nine per hidden cell, capped at enrollment. The exact pct_ell is missing unless the two bounds coincide.

What is served

  • Years: 2018-19, 2021-22, 2022-23, 2023-24, 2024-25, 2025-26
  • 3,075 school-year cells across 558 schools; 2,499 stored as suppressed (publisher withheld)

What it cannot show

  • The lower endpoint is used explicitly in peer groups and residual models; an upper-endpoint residual sensitivity compares the same schools, but is not a full uncertainty interval over all possible allocations. Students who exit ELL status (LF) are not counted.

How it was checked

Every served number runs through the four-check taxonomy described on the methodology page: (i) completeness, (ii) an exact re-read of the file by independent Python, (iii-b) a second publisher where one exists, (iv) recomputation of derived values.

(ii) Base case — outcomes track
