Think the teachers at this school is more on Facebook and talking on their cell phones than trying to educate our children. You take the phones from the children set an example and take them from the teacher.

About the tests

In 2011-2012 Georgia administered the Criterion-Referenced Competency Tests (CRCT) in reading, social studies, science, English language arts and math in grades 3 through 8. The CRCT is a standards-based assessment, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Georgia. The goal is for all students to score at or above the state standard.
