	A symbol is placed on the map for each school in a district with students that were tested for the selected grade/subject. The symbols are color-coded according to the percentage of students whose test results qualified them as “Advanced” or “Proficient” in the given subject.
	The map symbols also denote the change from 2006 in the percentage of students who were either "proficient" or "advanced" by using "+" and "-" symbols. If the change was between 5 and 10 percentage points, a smaller "+" or "-" is put inside the icon. Greater than 10 percentage point changes are denoted by larger symbols.
	If there were fifteen or fewer students in the class the scores are not reported to the public. Those scores are symbolized by a hollow symbol.
	When a school district is selected, links to the twenty closest school districts are displayed with the purple oval.
	A purple line depicts the boundary of the selected school district.
