SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
Each year, schools in North Carolina may receive
several designations based on their performance on the state's ABCs tests.
Those designations are awarded on the basis of the percentage of students
performing at grade level and on whether students have learned as much
as they are expected to learn in one year.
