School Excellence Reports Data Notes
Please see notes on the sources and calculation methods for the data contained in the School Excellence Reports below. Many metrics only display when they are relevant to a particular school (e.g. SAT and ACT scores will not display for elementary schools).
Accreditation Year: The official accreditation year of the district (or school in the case of DoDEA Virtual School). In the case of Europe West and DoDEA Virtual School, some accreditation activities were delayed until 2021 due to the pandemic, but retain their official accreditation year of 2020.
Number of Teachers: The number of teachers is based on the number of teaching positions in the school as recorded in DoDEA’s Manpower Management Tool in early October annually. Positions were categorized as teaching positions by a cross-functional team of HR and Manpower staff based on job description in the DoDEA’s Manpower Management Tool. Each teaching position is counted regardless of whether it was full or part time.
The Degrees of Teachers, Number of Military Spouses on Staff, Veterans on Staff and % of Teachers with 3+ Years at DoDEA metrics are all based on DCPDS data as of the end of April each year. The metrics reported for teachers only (Degrees of Teachers, the % of Teachers with 3+ Years at DoDEA) were categorized as teaching positions by a cross-functional team of HR and Manpower staff based on job description in the DoDEA’s Manpower Management Tool. Each teaching position is counted regardless of whether it was full or part time. Note that because of the differences in timing of available historical data, the total numbers will not necessarily total the same number or total the same number as the "Number of Teachers" metric.
All student counts and demographics are based on students enrolled in DoDEA schools on the annual enrollment census date in early October annually as recorded in DoDEA’s Student Information System. The following types of students recorded in DoDEA’s Student Information System are excluded from all counts and percentages in this section:
