The school is a wonderfull schoool. The parent involvement is very lacking. If the parents would get more involved in their childrens schooling then I think Allenbrooke would have great potential. I do not htink that the teachers or the school could do more. They can only do so much then then it is up to the parents. and that is where it is lacking.

About the tests


In 2011-2012 North Carolina used End-of-Grade (EOG) tests to assess students in grades 3 through 8 and 10 in reading and math, and grades 5, 8, and 10 in science. The EOG is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of North Carolina. Students must pass the grade 8 EOG test in order to graduate from high school. The goal is for all students to score at or above the proficient level on the tests.
