Faith is a school that local people love and our family just tolerates. I was disappointed from my first interaction with the school and it's staff and are currently looking at transeferring to another school or private schools. It is the school that time forgot and updates to make the school safe and clean (ex: old carpet, classeooms in basement areas) are bypassed in favor of the county building other schools.

Faith is a wonderful school that continuously puts the students' needs first. The staff is excellent and the atmosphere is inviting. I am so glad that my children have been part of this dynamic school. The test scores are the very best in the county too!

I think overall faith is a great school. But they have no reading programs for children who are behind in this area.

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.
