What a great school! We are a military family and was welcomed with open arms. It's such a great community. The teachers are truly invested in each student. We will be sad when it will be time to move.

We're a military family and chose to live in Wade because we wanted our daughter to go to District 7 based on the high ratings it's received. We are extremely impressed with the leadership and academics at District 7. It is apparent the staff realizes how important their roles are in the lives of the children--from the principal, to the teachers, to the bus drivers--all are caring professionals. The school emphasizes not only academics, but character building, as well. And the bus route has been so wonderful, that my kindergartner actually cried today because I drove her to school and she didn't get to ride the bus! Because the school is so small, extra-curr activities are minimal. However, this is an A+ school and we're very pleased we chose this district.

Great,excellent,none of these words fit for district 7. Just the best school ever. Cumberland country nc is a school of choice country. If you can get your child in this school it would be the best thing you could ever do for them.

District 7 was an answer to prayer for my family. It is a small school that is like a large family. The teachers and staff are great . Parents are encouraged to be involved with the education process. I could write all day about this school.

District 7 is small but does GREAT things for and with the kids. I personally went to the school serveral years ago along with my brothers, cousins. The school today is even better. My little one is going there now. I have had no problems with any of the teachers or any of the staff. In fact I have heard stories from other parents and the school their kids go to and I am so glad that my kid can attend District 7.

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.
