Please note: Some of the studies below include selected trends in ARMT scores by subgroup. Due to software limitations, some missing or unreported data may cause the trends to drop to zero (some data are not reported if the number of students falls below a threshold at which they might be identifiable). Consult the tables available through our search tool, or select the system and year, to compare the reported data with the trends to verify whether they are valid representations on those particular data points.
