Database Detail
| Name | Standardized Testing and Reporting Program (STAR) Results (Archives,1998-2002) (CA only) |
| Summary | National norm-reference test results for schools, counties, districts, and the state |
| Additional Background | The California Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR) Program provides national norm-reference test results for schools, counties, districts, and the state beginning in 1998. The national norm-referenced test from 1998-2002 was the Stanford Achievement Test Series, Ninth Edition (Stanford 9). This was replaced by California Achievement Tests, Sixth Edition Survey (CAT/6 Survey) in the spring of 2003. These tests allow comparisons to be made to a national sample of students. Please note that not all categories of test results are available for all years.
Users of these summary results should use extreme caution in making direct comparisons between test results in 1998-2002 and later years because these results come from two test series with different formats and difficulty levels. For more information on the STAR Program, see STAR Test Background.
See also STAR detailed categories, which contain results from additional STAR tests. These tests began in 2003.

Set APA as default format
APA
Format or style, from the American Psychological Association, is commonly used for footnotes in behavioral and social science publications. APA citation is an author-year-system. It is one of the most common styles used and taught at colleges and high schools. See here for more details, including APA formatting for bibliographies.Chicago
Format or style (also known as Turabian), created by the University of Chicago, is commonly used for footnotes in history, business, and fine arts and occasionally in the humanities, sciences, and social sciences. The Chicago style has two systems of citation. The author-date system (most common in social sciences and sciences) cites sources parenthetically in the text. The notes and bibliography system (most common in humanities) cites sources in numbered footnotes or endnotes which correspond to a superscript number in the text. See here for more details, including Chicago formatting for bibliographies.MLA
Modern Language Association (MLA) format or style is most commonly used for footnotes in the language arts, cultural studies, liberal arts, and humanities. MLA uses short parenthetical citations within the text that are linked to an alphabetical list of work cited at the end of the document. MLA commonly cites using this format: author's last name, first name, title, publication, edition or chapter, and year. See here for more details, including MLA formatting for bibliographies.AMA
American Medical Association (AMA) format or style is most commonly used for footnotes in medicine, biomedical research, nursing, dentistry, and other life sciences. AMA uses numerical superscript for citing sources in-text and refers to a list at the end of the work. These references appear in sequential order of when the sources were cited, instead of alphabetical order. See here for more details, including AMA formatting for bibliographies.Derived From: California Department of Education
