Yes, I am still writing about the 2017-18 accountability results.
This year, N.C. Department of Public Instruction analysts did not include a chart that compared district and charter performance grades, so I threw one together. It shows that, compared to districts, charter schools had a higher percentage of A and B schools, a lower percentage of C and D schools, and a higher percentage of F schools.
I chose to exclude alternative, deaf and blind, lab, and regional schools from the groups.
*Note that these are preliminary calculations and thus are subject to change.*
Charter Number | Charter Percent | District Number | District Percent | |
A | 15 | 9% | 170 | 7% |
B | 55 | 33% | 661 | 28% |
C | 60 | 36% | 1010 | 43% |
D | 30 | 18% | 442 | 19% |
F | 8 | 5% | 83 | 4% |
Subtotal | 168 | 2366 | ||
Alternative | 3 | 90 | ||
Insufficient Data | 2 | 10 | ||
Deaf and Blind Schools | 0 | 3 | ||
Lab Schools | 0 | 2 | ||
Regional School | 0 | 1 | ||
Total | 173 | 2472 |
