   74.00

   the state's PVAAS growth index for English/literature — whether the school's students grew as much as expected (the state's value-added score, on its own scale).

   How it was computedvalue = the state's published percentage for the school × subgroup, as-is

   1. Read the state's wide-format datafile: one row per Pennsylvania school, one column per measure × subgroup (e.g. PercentPersistentAttendance_Black).
   2. Keep Philadelphia rows by mapping the state's AUN + Schl codes to the district's ULCS code through the Master School List.
   3. Unpivot each recognized measure × subgroup column into one served cell; state suppression codes ('IS', '--', '*') are stored as suppressed.

   Citywide percentile, reconstructed right now

   Among 249 default-included schools with a value for this metric, year, and subgroup, this school has a higher value than 74 and ties 14. Midrank rule: (74 + 14/2) / (249 − 1) = 0.327.Stored: 0.327. ✓ matches

   Peer percentile, reconstructed right now

   Peer group: up to 40 of the demographically nearest schools among Elementary-Middle / catchment / district schools; 30 of 40 peers have a value this year. This school is above 4 and ties 1 of them. Midrank: (4 + 1/2) / (31 − 1) = 0.150; stored 0.150. ✓ matches

   Note: stored percentiles are computed by a batch script after loads; a difference from the live reconstruction means a newer load changed the comparison set and the batch has not been re-run.

   • The chronic-absenteeism column exists in the file but is empty for individual Philadelphia schools; the state reports persistent attendance instead.
   • Publishes no student counts for the attendance measure.
   • Its 90%-attendance figure does not match the district's for the same schools (see the cross-publisher check).

   Assumptions & caveatsAssumptions and caveats

   • The state's AUN + Schl → ULCS mapping from the 2024-25 Master School List is correct. State rows for schools not in that directory — district schools that closed before 2024-25 — are not loaded, so every year of state data is a survivor-only panel; cyber charters have their own AUNs and are outside the district's directory.
   • Where two directory schools share a state code (a school and its Continuation Academy), the state's single row belongs to the main school (deterministic rule; the full absenteeism QA lists every shared code).

   • The state publishes no student counts for most measures, so served cells carry no denominator.
