OS-40: Score Selection/Suppression For Buildings and System

DESCRIPTION

OS-40 allows you to specify the scores that are to be presented in the Building and System Averages Report. Your specification also affects the following, when ordered:

  • OS-9 - Building & System Averages, Sorted by Grade
  • OS-19 - Special Group Averages
  • OS-24 - Male and Female Averages
  • OS-34 - Extra Set of Building & System Averages
See the Service Options List for details on each service above.

Refer to the service description for the Building and System Averages Report, for an illustration of the "regular" scores that are reported.

When you specify additional scores, the Building and System Averages Report will expand to include extra lines for each grade, to meet your request.

Your choice of scores to be selected and/or suppressed must be included in the Special Instructions that accompany your order.

RELATED SERVICES

Note: OS-24 (Male and Female Averages) does not support these scores, even if they are selected via OS-40:

  • Number Attempted
  • Percent Attempted
  • Raw Score
  • Chance-Score Indicator
  • Percent Correct

If OS-23 (Out-of-Level Norms) is ordered, and if OS-40 is used to select building/system averages for Number Attempted, Percent Attempted, Raw Score, Percent Correct and/or the Chance-Score Indicator, and if the grade contains students at more than one level, then the averages for these scores will be left blank on the Building and System Averages Reports and on the following when ordered:

  • OS-9 - Building & System Averages, Sorted by Grade
  • OS-19 - Special Group Averages
  • OS-24 - Male and Female Averages
  • OS-34 - Extra Set of Building & System Averages
See the Service Options List for details on each service above.

For example: It is not appropriate to report an average for the Raw Scores when levels 10 and 11 are both involved within one grade.

See OS-30, for a similar service for students' scores and/or class averages.
