This is my child's first year of school. I am very pleased with her progress. Her teacher keeps in contact with the parents and welcome parent volunteers. I know what is going on in the classroom because I am made aware on a weekly basis of what she does well on and areas in which she can improve. I have experienced some of the extra-curricular activities that have been offered at the school. The students are well-behaved and the teacher turn-out is high. My daughter loves going to school! Thank you Ferguson-Easley, for affording my child the foundation she needs for building a positive school career.

My daughter has been going to F.E.E.S. three yrs. She is in fifth grade now. I could not have found a better school for my little girl. My daughter is an honor student and I truley believe that her grades are due not only to her hard work, but also to the hard work and dedication of the teachers she has had. The teachers are excellent. Our Principal, Mrs. Hill is the best I have seen yet!! She strives for excellence and in doing so helps to teach our children that they are truley All Stars who can achieve any dream. Keep up the excellent job you are doing with all our little ones!

I have two sons and two daughters who attend this school.We really think out of all the schools they have gone to this is the best one! Mrs. Hill is so caring and understanding and Ms. Spearman is strict and thoughtable! I advise all parents to get information on this school and allow your child or children to attend this 'Allstar School'! As all the staff and students at Ferguson-Easley say 'I hope you have an awesome All-Star day'!

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.
