   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 47 default-included schools with a value for this metric, year, and subgroup, this school has a higher value than 26. Midrank rule: (26 + 0/2) / (47 − 1) = 0.565.Stored: 0.565. ✓ matches

   Peer percentile, reconstructed right now

   Peer group: up to 40 of the demographically nearest schools among High / lottery / district schools; 7 of 11 peers have a value this year. This school is above 5 of them. Midrank: (5 + 0/2) / (8 − 1) = 0.714; stored 0.714. ✓ matches

   The peers and their values (7)

   Peer school	Value
   PAUL ROBESON HIGH SCHOOL	61.1%
   SWENSON ARTS/TECH HIGH SCHOOL	59.6%
   JULES MASTBAUM HIGH SCHOOL	44.0%
   BUILDING 21	31.0%
   HIGH SCHOOL OF THE FUTURE	22.5%
   MURRELL DOBBINS HIGH SCHOOL	14.3%
   THE LINC	4.8%

   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.

   To confirm you have the same file: download it from the URL above, then run shasum -a 256 <downloaded file> Copy command — the output should equal the hash above. If the publisher has since replaced the file, the hashes will differ, which is itself useful to know.

   The publisher's filePSSA & Keystone results, 2024-25

   School District of Philadelphia (Performance Office). State test results by school, test, subject, grade, and subgroup: counts and shares at each performance level, in two population cuts — the accountability cohort (students enrolled for the full year) and all tested students.

   • Two cuts of the same results; the accountability cohort is the canonical one served by default.
   • District-run and alternative schools only; charter results come from the state's Future Ready file.

   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.
   • Served from both the district's and the state's files; check the cell's load record.
