Lincolnton, NC Lincoln County Schools released the 2007-2008 North Carolina ABC results today. Dr. David Martin, Superintendent of Lincoln County Schools states, “The ABC results indicate that Lincoln County Schools are on a path of continuous improvement. The results are indicative of the commitment by students, teachers, and parents to do whatever it takes to assist students to grow academically. I am proud of our results; however, we have more work to do.”
The North Carolina ABC plan was developed by the North Carolina Board of Education to allow public schools to focus more on basic skills, higher accountability and more local control over educational decisions. ABC scores are based on individual schools. The North Carolina ABC accountability model measures school achievement in three ways to determine schools’ success over time:
1.Percent of students’ test scores at or above the proficient level (Performance Composite) 2.Academic Growth (High or Expected) 3.Adequate Yearly Progress
To measure growth, a student is expected to perform as well, or better, on the end-of-grade (EOG) and end-of-course (EOC) assessment for the current year compared to previous year data.
ABC growth results are based only on the Math component in 2007-2008. Reading results will be released in November. At that time, the schools’ Performance Composite and complete AYP results will be available.
The status for Lincoln County School of Technology will show as NS – No Status. Personnel at this school receive recognition based on their feeder schools. However, they do not receive a status as a stand alone school.
