^a Model 1 summary: AIC = 4509.59, BIC = 4514.33, level-2 variance component = 0.37, SE = 0.19, p = .06

^b Model 2 summary: AIC = 4549.17, BIC = 4553.90, level-2 variance component = 0.26, SE = 0.18, p = .16

^c Model 3 summary: We initially estimated the level-2 variance component in the model; however, the Hessian matrix was not positive definite due to lack of variance between classrooms. Therefore, we set the level-2 variance component at zero and re-estimated the model, for which AIC = 450.94, BIC = 474.26.
