(*) The performance composite above includes the Grade 4 Writing scores.
 In 2001-2002, the state of North Carolina testing division eliminated the writing scores for grade 4.
This resulted in a final performance composite of 85.6% (% of students at or above grade level).

 

The North Carolina State Board of Education annually sets challenging growth expectations for each
school in the 117 Local Education Agencies (LEA). Formulas used may be viewed in the Department of Public Instruction Accountability Brief.

The growth of students is determined by scores on the North Carolina End-of-Grade Tests of Reading
Comprehension and Mathematics. The scores from these tests are reported on developmental scales,
which yield rulers to measure growth in these subject areas across time and, therefore, across grades.

CELEBRATION: For a second year in a row, Central Elementary earned the honor of
"School of Distinction" as a result of positive growth in 2001-2002 test scores. In

addition, Central Elementary made both EXPECTED and HIGH GROWTH in 2001-2002.
