Purpose

The Cohort Assessments Comparison To District data extract allows users to compare the scores of a single cohort of students to the overall performance of that grade level within the district.

The students included in the cohort are all those from a school who took the selected set of assessments and attended the district during the time window encompassed by the assessments. 

note:  Using a test that is taken at different school years and grade levels for different students is not recommended for this extract (example:  MSP Science Gr 8 and EOC Biology are not taken during the same year). The extract attempts to relate cohort performance on tests in a year to district performance on a test in that same year. Once the year is no longer consistent for students (in the cohort or district) the report is no longer the appropriate tool. In such cases, the extract Longitudinal Cohort Assessment is the better option because the results are independent of the school year: it uses the set of students with results for the same set of tests regardless the year the tests were taken.
