Who takes these tests

ELA and Math: the grade 10 KAP tests, taken by 10th graders. Science: the grade 11 KAP science test, taken by 11th graders. Each year counts the students who took that test that spring. Students with the most significant cognitive disabilities (about 1 in 100) take a separate alternate test and are not included, and English learners in their first year in a U.S. school take Math and Science but not ELA. The statewide figures cover public schools; accredited private schools that give the KAP are shown as their own districts.
