This dataset contains Next Generation MCAS results by school since 2017, including achievement level, participation rate, average scaled score, and average student growth percentile. The Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment System (MCAS) is a statewide assessment administered to help parents, students, educators, and policymakers determine where districts, schools, and students are meeting expectations and where they need additional support.

Please note that Legacy MCAS results are not included in this dataset, nor are PARCC or other student assessment results. A table documenting the transition to Next Generation MCAS over time can be found in the DESE Researcher's Guide linked as featured content below.

Student growth percentile (AVG_SGP) was calculated as a median for 2017. In 2018 and onward, it is a mean. For more information about MCAS data, click here.
