Note: Readers should be aware that occasionally the BMI classification results for schools and school districts may vary slightly between the individual School Reports and the overall statewide report. The differences between the two types of report are due to the ways in which individual students are classified by grade, school, or age for analysis. The difference in results reported between the two reports may be
up to 3 percentage points.
