What you are looking at

These tables present data from the annual SALT Survey of teachers. The questions selected for these tables contain information about the teachers’ own perceptions of their teaching practices.

The schools are ranked by the teachers’ responses to the first item: the percent of teachers who say that they “examine students’ work to guide instruction” at least weekly.

What you are looking for

Each of the six columns represents a beneficial and effective teaching practice. You would like to see that nearly all teachers engage in each of these teaching practices at least on a weekly basis. That is, you would like to see a response that is at or near 100 percent in each of the columns.
