Tests: What are the tests that are used in the ABCs Accountability Program?
CategoriesDepartment |
In grades 3 through 8, students take the state's End-of-Grade (EOG) tests in reading and mathematics at the end of the year. In grades 9 through 12, End-of-Course (EOC) tests are given to students in ten selected courses: Algebra I, English I, Biology, Geometry, Algebra II, U.S. History, Civics & Economics, Chemistry, Physical Science, and Physics. Also, students in grades 4, 7, and 10 take a Writing test each March. Students in 8th grade also take a Computer Skills test. All of these tests are based on the Standard Course of Study, which is the official statewide curriculum created by the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction.
