In compliance with the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB) North Carolina students in grades 5 and 8 complete state End-of-Grade tests in science at the conclusion of each school year. This section provides you with information about how students in this school district scored on End-of-Grade science tests. Review the performance of students in your district at each grade level. Does one grade level stand out as exceptionally strong or weak?
This table shows the percentage of district students who scored at or above grade level on the science End-of-Grade tests, as well as the number of tests taken in each grade. Whenever there are fewer than five student scores in a category, a percentage is not reported so that student test results remain anonymous. Instead, an N/A (not available) appears in place of the percentage. Also to protect student privacy, any percentage that is higher than 95 appears as >95%, and any percentage that is lower than 5 appears as <5%.
Student performance on the state's End-of-Grade tests is reported in levels ranging from I-IV. Students are considered to be at or above grade level if they receive a score of Achievement Level III or IV on the state's tests.
