Who takes these tests

These numbers are the Alaska public school students in grade 9 tested in ELA and math, and in grade 10 tested in science, by the school where they tested: PEAKS and the older science test in 2018 and 2019, AK STAR and the Alaska Science Assessment from 2022. Alaska hides a group's whole row when it is small; the statewide figures add up the district reports, since Alaska publishes no statewide breakdown by level.
