  3. Analyses of Biennial Performance Reports (2002) NCEO Study Procedures [Data for 2000-2001] • Received data from OSEP, U.S. Dept of Ed • Summarized findings and sent to states to verify • States sent corrections • No numbers changed (unless incorrect) except those in resubmitted BPRs

  8. Major Findings • Nearly all states reported numbers of students participating in general and alternate assessments, but rates could not be calculated in all states • Average participation rates were General assessments: 84.2% (regular states) and 63.8% (unique states) Alternate assessments: 5.6% (regular states) and 12.3% (for unique states) OF STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES IN THOSE STATES FOR WHICH RATES COULD BE CALCULATED
