Note: The IEP and 504 Plan drop-down lists filter results based on the Year you select. The Econ Disadvantaged drop-down list filters results based on the school year in context (and displays only if the user role you were assigned in StudentInformation has access to sensitive data).

A more refined list of student scores matching your search criteria displays as reflected by the updated record count and changes to the graphs.
