Student Handbook
Academics
North Carolina’s school report cards are an important resource for parents, educators, state leaders, researchers, and others, providing information about school- and district-level data in a number of areas. These include student performance and academic growth, school and student characteristics, and many other details.
Report cards are provided for all North Carolina public schools, including charter and alternative schools.
School Report Card includes the following:
EL Progress indicator
Long term goals
Grade 8th Math Exception configurations
Combined EOG/EOC scores
Separated EOG/EOC
School Performance Grades by subgroup
Subgroup reporting changes for several academic Indicators
ACT/ACT Workeys
Alternative School reporting adjusted to comply SBE directive
CSI/TSI Designations (including the reasons for any such designations)

Additionally, the Report Card will include data for College Endorsements, KEA School Readiness, and Arts & Education.
Parents and others should note that the information in the School Report Card, while important, cannot tell you the entire story about a school. Other important factors — the extra hours put in by teachers preparing for class and grading assignments, the school spirit felt by families, the involvement in sports, arts, or other extracurriculars — are crucial aspects of a school community, but are not reflected on the Report Card.
