I feel like this neighborhood school is making great strides. The new principal has put in hard work and determination to turn this school around. Great faculty- very support. This is our second year and I am pleasantly surprised. The school could use more parent involvement but that is probably the case all over the city as people are very busy. Still is has great support from the neighbors and local corporations who donate materials to the school for all the children such as back-packs, supplies and uniforms. Also their are neighbors who volenteer and offer tutoring. Very community oriented.

The attitude of the teachers is great. They care very much about the futures of the students. The school is well run by the principal.

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.
