    Note: Results reflect combined average results of State ELA and math tests in grades 4 and 8 from 2002-2005 and grades 3-8 from 2006-09. In schoolyears where NYSED reports scale scores rounded to the nearest integer, ties between counties are broken by prior year rank. The State rescaled thetests in 2005/06, leading to reductions in average scale scores that year.
