39. Composite Performance Index (CPI)
The CPI is:
• a metric that is used to measure school and district performance and improvement;
• a 100-point index that combines the scores of students who participate in standard
MCAS ELA and mathematics tests, and those who participate in the MCAS-Alt.
MCAS Performance Level Scaled Score Range MCAS-Alt Performance Level Points Per

40. Composite Performance Index (CPI)
Multiply the number of points by the number of students at each performance
level, then divide the total number of points by the total number of students
