How are the poorest school districts in a state performing against similar districts nationally?

Compare a state’s bottom band (default 10% of districts with the lowest socioeconomic status (SES)) to districts in other states with similar SES (P5–P95 SES window of that band). Red points are bottom-band districts in the state. National pool and comparisons use districts whose state’s SEDA achievement year is in the years you select (default 2024 and 2025). Each state has a minimum enrollment threshold so very small districts do not dominate (90% student-coverage rule). Select a state to see its enrollment threshold.
