The purpose of this research brief for the Colorado Department of Education Accountability & Data Analysis is to address to what extent are school‐level Median Growth Percentiles correlated  with current student achievement, prior student achievement, and current school demographic characteristics?  How do  these correlations compare to the correlation between current average achievement and the same demographic  variables?
