Achievement is a measure of how well students performed on state tests. Progress measures student growth based on past performance. Gap Closing focuses on the reduction of educational gaps for students. 

Graduation is a measure of the four-year graduation rate. Early Literacy is a measure of reading improvement and proficiency for students in K-3. College, Career, Workforce and Military Readiness measures how well Ohio students are prepared for future opportunities.
