Is the criteria for low income the same everywhere in California? If so, the effects of poverty on a child living in San Francisco may be more intense. The impact of high rent/less living space, cost of food and crime might make educational outcomes different for a child living in a city vs a child who lives in Clovis.
"There's basically no relationship between how Latino a district is (i.e. the share of students who are Latino) and how well those students do on the SBAC tests."
That's not what that graph looks like to me, I wondered if this is based on a statistical analysis.
It's pretty well known in education that in highly segregated classes of Black and Latino students, the students do worse than in more integrated classes. This jibes with your analysis that concentrated poverty causes students to do worse.

How are the standards developed? It seems that 25% fall into each of the four categories. Is it a normal distribution?
