NEW ON MEASURING UP

ADEQUATE YEARLY PROGRESS
   Under No Child Left Behind, all public school campuses are required to annually meet criteria on three measures: reading scores, math scores and graduation rate/attendance rate. This database contains the data and scores for area school districts.


GETTING A BREAK
   Exceptions to the rules allow schools to bump up their ratings.
   Check the list of local schools who did that this year.


COMPLETING SCHOOL
   School ratings are based in part on how many seniors actually finish all their requirements and graduate, or come back the next year to finish their education.
   Use these interactive lists to see which schools were best - or worst - at getting their seniors to graduate.


ACCOUNTABILITY
   Every year superintendents, teachers and parents watch closely as their campuses get an academic rating.
   You'll find ratings for every school here, for quick and easy comparison in a district, or between districts.
