shown. If the number of students who passed the alternative assessment is fewer than ten students, an asterisk (*) is shown. 

Privacy policies dictate that for less than ten students, the specific number and percentage should not be given. An * indicates that the student population number and percentage is too 

small to report the value. The percentage and number of students are not shown if the percentage is greater than 95 percent (>95) or less than 5 percent (<5).
