State report card
North Carolina grades every public school A to F. The score is based 80% on student achievement and 20% on academic growth, the state’s 2025-26 annual testing report says.
| School year | Grade and score | Growth |
|---|---|---|
| 2025-26 | A (85) | Not met |
| 2024-25 | A (90) | Exceeded |
The grades shown are the Latta Campus’s, for grades 3-5. The state gives the pre-K-2 code the same grade and score, flagged as a K-2 feeder grade, because state tests start in third grade.
The 2025-26 grades come from the state’s accountability data, released in September. From the same data:
- At grade level or above, all state tests: 88.4% (CMS: 60.9%; state: 59.2%)
- College and career ready (Level 4 and above): 77.6%
- Growth: did not meet expected growth
The full report card, with attendance, teacher and course data, is on the state’s NC School Report Cards site. On Oct. 11 it still showed the 2024-25 edition.
