Posted March 1, 2012

My children feel safe, secure, and loved at Mabel. After that it all seems to fall in place. Thank you Mabel!!
—Submitted by a parent


Posted March 20, 2010

I haven't always agreed with the discipline but I will say it has been consistent top to bottom. (as in maybe a a little tough but better than the alternative) It is also nice just to walk in and have ppl speak to you like you are a part of that family. The class sizes are a great secret and I would request a transfer back if we ever moved out of district. Don't let the rural setting or the size fool you, first class all the way.

Freindly and effective staff and a principal to match. The school is a place kids want to be. Teachers return my calls when I need help and the size is just right.

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.
