Annual Measurable Objectives (AMOs) Results
North Carolina has set Annual Measureable Objectives (AMOs) under No Child Left Behind (NCLB).
|
Our state met 77
of our 91 Annual Measurable Objects or 84.6%.
|
ESEA School Status Lists
Under waivers to specific provisions of No Child Left Behind (NCLB), the State must
implement a differentiated recognition, accountability, and support system for all of its LEAs and all Title I
schools. Schools are identified based on the school’s performance, including the academic achievement and
graduation rates of all students and all subgroups of students, and also based on how performance has changed
over time. The State is not required to identify a local education agency (LEA) for district improvement or
corrective action.
