jQ'14-I'1cI5 Dear Reader:

Council Members
Pat Willis, Chairman Buford Arnold
Dorothy Cottom Leena Johnson Melvin Kruger Linda Schrenko Dean Swanson
Gary T. Henry, Director

The Council for School Performance is very pleased to provide you with its 1994-95 School System Pilot Performance Report. The Council was created by the General Assembly in 1993 at the request of the Governor as an independent body commissioned to provide an impartial reporting on the performance of schools and school systems in Georgia.
In response to this legislation, we are distributing reports to educators and the community through school superintendents, boards of education, chambers of commerce, county libraries, Regional Educational Services Agencies (RESAs), government leaders, and the media. The Council has worked over the past two years with principals, school board members, school superintendents, teachers, and community readers to develop the indicators of performance that are being piloted this year. The pilot reports contain the information educators and community leaders believe is necessary for school improvement. The information is reported in a way that is intended to facilitate both accountability and improvement.
We hope that the information contained within this report will be used by you and others in your community to review the performance of your school system(s) and to promote and support action in areas where improvement is needed. For current performance to be accurately gauged and future school improvement to be measured, Georgia policy makers, educators, and community members need independent, user-friendly information that allows comparisons. This report was designed to provide information on a school system's score for each indicator as well as easy comparisons with similar school systems and school systems throughout the state.
In the near future, the Council will report on the performance of individual high schools, middle schools, and elementary schools. These reports will have a similar format to the school system reports and should assist teachers, parents, and others in measuring their school's progress toward locally established goals. We believe these data will help improve the performance of our schools and increase the ability of policy makers to make effective decisions that benefit all students.

We appreciate your interest in improving the performance of Georgia's schools and school systems. As we plan to report performance information annually, we would welcome your comments on the report and its use in your community.
Sincerely,

Pat Willis

Councilfor School Performance

INTERPRETING AND ANALYZING SCHOOL SYSTEM PERFORMANCE REpORTS
School System Performance Reports are designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. This information can be used for school improvement and accountability. A major step in using school system performance data is the process of interpreting and analyzing the data to identify successful areas, problem areas, and possible causes of problems. Using a list of identified problem areas, educators as well as policymakers and the public can determine which areas are of greatest concern, investigate "best" options for improvement in those areas, and plan for and implement appropriate action. The following guidelines should be considered in reviewing, interpreting, and analyzing Performance Reports:
FIRST, SCAN THE ENTIRE REPORT, The report is divided into eight sections which provide a framework for measures of school system performance. Each section is divided into indicators which provide detailed information about performance in a given area. Indicators provide a score for the system as well as information on how the system's score compares with scores from school systems with similar demographics and school systems throughout the state. There are two types of indicators. School indicators measure student performance in areas that could be directly affected by schools and school systems. Community indicators measure how well the community is working on factors that effect the quality of education in their area.
Although you may begin your analysis in any section, it is critical that you search for strengths and weaknesses throughout the entire report. As you scan the report you will note that indicators of Academic Preparation in section three clearly could be related to indicators in other sections such as School Readiness in section one, Teacher Education and Professional Development in section four, or Parental and Community Participation in section eight. Considering the connections between indicators in different sections, your best sequence for analyzing data in the report might be to start with section one and work through section eight systematically.
SECOND, LoCATE SPECIAL AREAS OF INTEREST OR CONCERN. Another strategy for reviewing the data is to locate a section which has information that seems most important to your school system and/or community. For example, section five provides indicators of how well a system is performing relative to high standards in Mathematics and Science, section two provides indicators related to School Completion, and section six addresses Adult Literacy and Citizenship. If you have a special interest in School Safety, turn to section seven on page 4 for information on this topic.
Even within a section, you may find that some indicators are more focused on your areas of interest than others. For example, sections one, six, seven, and eight include both school and community indicators with community indicators shown in italics. In other sections the data are grouped by grade level with alternate grade levels shaded gray for easier reading. For example, if you are most concerned about student performance at the high school level, you can easily locate these indicators within sections two, three, and five.
Or you may be more concerned about student performance across all grade levels in a specific subject area such as reading. If so, scan section three and you will find indicators for reading at elementary, middle, and high school grades. Analyzing the performance of students from one school level to the next can lead to improved communication between educators at different levels. The measures of performance at different levels in reading include data from norm-referenced tests (NRTs) that provide national comparisons, curriculum-based assessments
CounciljorSchoolPerjornuznce

(CBAs) that focus on the Georgia curriculum, and graduation tests. In section three you will also see that scores for reading have been disaggregated by race so that differences in scores of white and black students are presented in percentage points. Information on indicators showing racial or gender gaps can be used to focus the concern and effort needed to reduce such gaps.
THIRD. IDENTIFY Low PERFORMANCE INDICATORS. To identify areas where improvement may be needed, begin by looking at the number of stars in the first column. More than three stars means that a system's performance is better than average for systems with similar demographics. Three stars mean the performance for that indicator is about average; fewer than three stars means below average. More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, more stars means lower dropout rates. List or mark the indicators in a section where the system's performance is low compared to similar school systems. Also, note the high performance indicators to reinforce and celebrate successes.
System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps are shown by percentage point differences (white% minus black%; male% minus female%). For these indicators, scores that are closer to zero, indicating small gaps, are better. To determine which gender or race is faring better for a given indicator, consider the type of indicator--one where high performance is better or one where low performance is better. For example, if the gender gap is 3.9 for indicator 18 in section three, that means that 3.9% more males scored above the national average in math than did females. Therefore, males fared better than females because high performance is better for indicators on test scores. However if the score is negative (i.e., -3.9), that means that females scored better than males. For an example of an indicator where low performance is better, the racial gap could be 2.5 for indicator 2 in section two. This means that there are 2.5% more white students than there are black students who are overage in 5th grade. Since this indicator works in the reverse direction where low performance is better, black students are faring better than white students.
Next, look at the stars for all indicators in relation to the checks in the second column. A check means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state for that indicator. If there are three or more stars but no check, you may want to list or mark that indicator as one where the system is performing well among similar systems but not as well when compared to the state. Conversely, there may be areas that have already been marked where the system is performing well compared to the state but not as well when compared to similar systems.
Now, look at the system score. It is possible that a system is performing well compared to similar systems and the state but not meeting state standards on CBAs in section three or high standards in math or science in section five. Scores might also show in sections three and five that the system is not performing well compared to the nation based on information such as NRT data that give a national perspective. With information from other states on SAT scores, dropout rates, and Advanced Placement test results, a system could make comparisons and target areas for improvement not reflected in the stars and checks.
FOURTH. LOOK FOR LINKAGES BETWEEN INDICATORS. After identifying possible problem areas, study the report to find possible causes or areas that may be related to the low performance indicators. For example, low test results in eighth grade math shown in section three could be related to poor attendance for middle school students shown in section two. Test results in middle school could also be related to elementary or even pre-school preparation. Finding meaningful linkages between indicators for a given data set may require collective brainstorming as well as assistance from consultants from outside the system such as educators from similar systems that performed well on those indicators.
Council for School Performance

USING SCHOOL PERFORMANCE DATA
The most important use for school performance data is the improvement of the education we offer students. The Council for School Performance has issued school system and school performance reports in order to provide you with an impartial and accurate source of data. This data can be used by schools and the communities they serve as benchmarks for performance and measures for accountability.
Analyzing the performance data provided by the Council will assist you with identification of problem areas in your schools and community. These data can be used along with data from other sources to provide you with comparisons which are helpful in analyzing your school's performance. After identifying problem areas, you can further analyze and study the causes of problems and possible options for addressing those identified as priorities.
This information on school performance communicate how well schools are meeting expectations in areas important to the schools and the community. With this knowledge schools and communities can develop plans of action, implement these plans, and measure the progress along the way.
The following steps represent a simplified guide to using school performance data for educational improvement:
Step One: Link To Programs And People
In order to develop a successful plan that will work when implemented, the planning process must include broad representation from the very beginning. Plan to involve members of the school staff and appropriate community members in large and small group meetings. These sessions could be conducted in appropriate settings such as department, grade level, or faculty meetings and community advisory meetings.
It is not necessary to create a new school improvement program. There may already be a school improvement program or group that can meet your needs, or there may be an opportunity to add additional people to an existing group that is addressing school improvement. In fact, you may be more successful if you use existing programs, mandates, or vehicles that have been set up to focus on school improvement.
The Council data can help to inform data-focused school committees, teams, or task forces in areas such as action research, Title I school improvement, Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), High Schools that Work, Pay for Performance, League of Professional Schools, Next Generation Schools, and similar programs. By examining the Council data, members of these groups will have additional sources of information as they study performance in their school.
Step Two: Look For Problem Areas And Causes Using appropriate workgroups, analyze your data to identify areas in need of schoolwide attention. You should use existing data sources along with data from Council indicators as you look for both strengths and weaknesses in your school and system. Compare your school and system data with state and similar system data to determine the greatest areas of need in your schools and community. Using data from the Council, you should be able to find problem areas and then examine the causes of the problems. For example, you may find that student achievement is linked to problems with attendance or lack of parental involvement.
CouncuforSchoolPerfonmance

Step Three: Establish Priorities To set priorities, determine the importance of the problem area in light of the potential causes and your knowledge of the students, the learning environment, and the community. Establish priorities for improvement that maintain a focus on student learning and existing school goals. Also, focus on areas for improvement that are within the control of the school and community. Step Four: Investigate Options Using appropriate workgroups, study the professional literature relating to the problems identified as priorities for your school. Use the research reports or contact other schools that have high performance ratings to identify successful strategies "with good track records" in addressing the priorities. For example, a middle school that wants to improve achievement for at-risk students might consider a mentoring program has data indicating effectiveness for this target population. Smaller study groups could come back and share their information with the larger school improvement group in order to assist school staff and the community in the selection or creation of "best" options for improvement. Step Five: Plan For Action After you have selected or designed options for addressing your priorities for school improvement, it is time to develop action plans. The plans should merge with ongoing improvement efforts in your schools and community. Generally plans identify: (1) what the problem is, (2) what actions and/or strategies have been selected to address the problem, (3) who will implement the plan, (4) what resources will be allocated to the implementation, (5) when the implementation will occur, and (6) how progress will be measured. The plan should focus on student learning and have a direct relationship to instruction. It is also critical that you make provisions for time and resources for staff development and continued study of data relating to the problem being addressed. Step Six: Implement And Measure Although groups have been engaged in "action" all along the way--from review of data to the development of action plans--they now have a written description of procedures that they can follow as they implement actions specified in the plan. Action plans become published documents that help to direct schoolwide initiatives. The plans also direct the data collection needed to measure progress on improvements as well as progress on implementation of actions described in the plan. As data are examined, existing action plans may be modified and additional plans developed and implemented.

APPLING COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. 1be Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about averqe for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top halfof systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means 12m dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
pps are shown by percentage point differences (white% minus bJackOIO; male% minus femaleOlO).

ATKINSON COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender ppI are shown by pen:entage point differences (white-Ie minus blackOle; male% minus female%).

System is in the top 2a-1e of simi1ar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 4()01e). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6()01e). System is below average for similar systems (lower 4001e). System is in the lowest 2a-1e of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than t.hree stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the

PLEASI NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores arc better, such u dropout rates, ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender pps arc shown by percentage point difl'erenccs (whitcOle minus blaacole; male% minus femaleOlo).

BACON COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT 0994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided dircct1y by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verifY some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better. such as dropout rates, JD2G stars means lower dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps are shown by pen:entage point ditJerences (whiteO.4 minus blacJcOIo; male% minus female%).

**************
*t/
t

System is in the top 20-.4 of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 40-.4). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 60%). System is below average for similar systems (lower 40%). System is in the lowest 20-.4 of similar school systems. System performed in top halfof the state school systems
At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is
better

BALDWIN COUNlY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and aa:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided dired1y by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the CouDci1 calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and
rate ofgrowth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

mr are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by percentage point differences (white-.4 minus b~/.; male% minus female%).

BARROW COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School PerfOI'llllUl<:e begins annual reponing on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide infonnation to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
The information c:an be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verifY some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's perfOI'llllUl<:e is about
average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOn:: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Usc your judgment on the importance of any given iDdieator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such u dropout rates. ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
pps are shown by percent.qe point difl'ereoc:cs .(white-.4 minus bJack4'/e; malcO.4 minus femalcO.4).

********* *****
"t*

I I (.1.'\1)
System is in the top 20% of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top W.4). System is in middle range of similar systems (top W.4). System is below average for similar systems (lower WIo). System is in the lowest 20% of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

BARTOW COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided direct1y by either state sources or school systems. School systems wete not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

mr given indicator. (2) More stars always means better perfonnanee relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

are better, such as dropout rates, nmG stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by percentage point differences (white% minus blacJt-/e; maIe% minus femaIe%).

BERRIEN COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT 0994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system perfonnance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and aa:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to vemy some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fcwcr than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender ppI are shown by percentage point differences (white'le minus bladt%; male"1e minus female%).

System is below average for similar systems (lower .wele). System is in the lowest 20ele of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems
At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is

BLECKLEY COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the
second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany

given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

ppI are shown by percentage point difl'erences (white% minus blaaee,,; male% minus femaleO").

.

***** **** *** **

t

System is in the top 20% of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 4QO"). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6()lI"). System is below average for similar systems (lower 4QO"). System is in the lowest 20% of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the
second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars alwaysmcans better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender JIPI are shown by percentage point clift'erences (WhiteOh minus black%; male-h minus female-h).

System is in the top 20eh of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top Wh). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6oeh). System is below average for similar systems (lower 4oeh). System is in the lowest 20% of similar school systems. System performed in top half ofthe state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were

BROOKS COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT 0994-95)
COUNOLFORSCHOOLPERFORMANCE

TIle Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. TIle information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better perfonnance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means ~ dropout ratcs. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender lIP' are shown by percentage point differeoces (white".4 minus blacJt-.4; male% minus female%).

BUFORD CITY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the
Council c:ak:ulated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates. m2G stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
pps are shown by percentage point differences (white% minus blacJt-~; male% minus female%).

BULLOCH COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

'The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. 'The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. 'The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report. look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performanc:e relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means Imm: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
lIP' are shown by percentage point differences (whitee~ minus b~/.; male% minus femaleO~).

System is in the top 20% of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top WAt). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 60%). System is below average for similar systems (lower W~). System is in the lowest 2oe~ of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

BUTTS COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCll.. FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Performance begins annual reportinl on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is desiped to provide information to parents. educators. community members. and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and ac:countability. All data used in c:aIculatinl system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verifY some of the data that the
Council c:aIculatcd from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's perfonnance is about averale for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size. students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and
rate of1fOWlh. More than three stars means better than averale; fewer than three stars means below averale. A checlc in the
second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judament on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, m28 stars means lmm: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and lenclcr
ppI are shown by percentaae point differences (white% minus blact-~; malee~ minus femalee~).

System is in the top 2()o~ of similar school systems. System is above averale for similar systems (top .we~). System is in middle ranle of similar systems (top ~~). System is below average for similar systems (lower 4()o~). System is in the lowest 2()o~ of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems
At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is

CALHOUN CITY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performanc:e begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided diRdly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

NASI NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, m2R stars means l2!m: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps are shown by percentage point difJ'erences (whiteOle minus bladc%; male% minus female%).

CALHOUN COUNlY SCHOOL SYSTEM pll..Or PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNC~FORSCHOOLPERFORMANCE

The CouDciI for Scbooi Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
The iDformation can be used for school improvement and aa:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To undentand the fq)Ort, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about
average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average~ fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the sccood column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PyAS' NOli: (1) Not all indicators are equally important tQ every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

mr given iDdicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

are better, such as dropout rates. DlSB stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by pen:cntqe point differences (whiaeo/e minus blackO/e~ male% minus female%).

CAMDEN COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNaL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Perfonnance begins annual reporting on school system perfonnance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Perfonnance Report is designed to provide information to parents. educators. community members. and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report. look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's perfonnance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size. students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of powth. More than three stars means better than averaac; fewer than three stars means below avcragc. A check in the second column means that the system perfol'llled in the top halfof systems in the state.
PLEASE NQTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any Jiven indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relativc to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores arc better. such as dropout rates, m2B stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender ppI arc shown by percentage point diffcreJK:eS (white% minus blaclcOlo; male% minus fcmale%).

CANDLER COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided din:ctly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the
second column IDCllDI that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOD: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, l!U2B stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender lIP' are shown by percentage point difl'erences (white% minus bJa-/o; male% minus female%).

CARROLL COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Perfonnance begins annual reporting on school system perfonnance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Perfonnance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the
Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's perfonnance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

given indicator. (2) More stars always means better perfonnance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

mr are better, such as dropout rates, more stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by percentage point differences (white% minus blacicOlo; male% minus femaleOlo).

***** **** *** **

System is in the top 20-10 of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 40-10). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6()O/.). System is below average for similar systems (lower 4Q01o). System is in the lowest 2()81o of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

CARTERSVILLE CITY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCn. FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Perfonnance begins annual reporting on school system perfonnance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Perfonnance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The infonnation can be used for school improvement and acc:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to veritY some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, loolc at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's perfonnance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average~ fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top halfof systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender ppI are shown by perccntqe point di1I"ereuces (wbite% minus blact-.4~ male% minus femalet'.4).

System is in the top 20-.4 of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top W.4). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6QO.4). System is below average for similar systems (lower 400.4). System is in the lowest 20-.4 of similar school systems. System performed in top half ofthe state school systems At the end ofan indicator means lower absolute score is better

CATOOSA COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE .
The Council for School PerfOJ'llllUlCC begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. 1be Performanc::e Report is designed to provide infonnation to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The infonnation can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Counci1 calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report. look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performanc::e is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stan means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stan always means better performanc::erelative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means !2Mr dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps are shown by percentage point differences (whiteO.4 minus black%; male% minus female%).

System is below average for similar systems (lower 4()OAt). System is in the lowest 200.4 of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

CHARLTON COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCn. FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Performanc:e begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
The information can be used for school improvement and acc::ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided dircct1y by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To UDdcrstand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average: A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates. m2m stars means l2M! dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps are shown by percentage point differences (white% minus blackOlo; male% minus femaie%).

***** **** *** **

Sy.... is in the top 20% of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top WIo). Sys&em is in middle range of similar systems (top 60%). System is below average for similar systems (lower WIo). System is in the lowest 20010 of similar sChool systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

CHATHAM COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNca FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE .

The Council for School Performance begins annual r:eporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be Used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top halfof systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means lmm: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps are shown by percentage point differences (whitee.4 minus b1ack4'.4; maleO.4 minus fema1e%).

CBAITOOGA COUNlY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this doc:ument. The Performance Report is designed to provide infonnation to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council ca1cu1ated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the IeCOOd column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates. ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
pps are shown by percentage point dift'erences (white-" minus blacJt4l"~ male% minus female%).

System is in the top 20-" of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 4QOAt). System is in middle range of similar systems (top ~"). System is below average for similar systems (lower 4QOAt). System is in the lowest 20-" of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

CHICKAMAUGA CITY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCn.. FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Perfol1ll81lCC begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the
second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators arc equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
arc better, such IS dropout rates, ~ stars means I2Br dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
lIP' arc shown by perc::entqe point dift'erences (white-" minus bJackO": male-" minus female".).

***** **** *** **

t

Syltem is ill the top 20% of similar school systems. System is IIboYe averqe for similar systems (top 400/.). System is ill middle range of similar systems (top 600"). System is below average for similar systems (lower 400"). System is ill the lowest 20% of similar school systems. System performed i~ top half ofthe state school systems
At the end ofan indicator means lower absolute score is

CLARKE COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Performan<:e begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performan<:e Report is designed to provide information to parents. educators. community members. and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided direct1y by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report. look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performan<:e is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size. students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average~ fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates. ~ stars means I2Br dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps are shown by percentage point differences (white% minus blacke; male-A. minus female%).

System is in the top 200.4 of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systeDIS (top 40%). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 60-.4). System is below average for similar systems (lower 400.4). System is in the lowest 20-.4 of similar school systems. System performed in top halfof the state school systems At the end of an indic:ator means lower absolute score is better

CLAYTON COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCll.. FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE .

1bc Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. 1bc information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or centrallOUfClCS.
To understand the report, loolc at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates. more stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps are shown by percentage point cWferences (whitcO'" minus blackO,..; male% minus female%).

The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All dataused in calculating system scores were

provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the

Council cak:uIated from state or central sources.

.

To understand the report. look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about

More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PllfME NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better perfonnanc:e relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means Is!Br dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gapI are shown by percentage point cWferences (whitCO.4 minus bIack%; maJe% minus femaJe%).

COBB COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM Pn,OT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCn, FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide infonnation to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and ac:countability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, IIJ2m stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender pps are shown by percentage point differences (white% minus bl~lO; male810 minus femaJe%).

COLQUITI' COUNlY SCHOOL SYSTEM Pll..OI PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCll.. FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. 1be Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system perfonned in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOD: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

mm mr given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

are better, such as dropout rates,

stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

PIlI are shown by percentage point differences (white% minus bladt4'l.; maie% minus femaie%).

**************
~ *
t

System is in the top 20-1. of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 4Q01e). System is in middle range of similar systems (top WI.). System is below average for similar systems (lower 40%). System is in the lowest 20-1. of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end ofan indicator means lower absolute score is better

COMMERCE CITY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Perfonnanc:e begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about
average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the
second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOIl: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps are shown by percentage point differences (whiteO~ minus b~~; male% minus female%).

System is below average for similar systems (lower 4OOAt). System is in the lowest 2()o~ of similar school systems. System performed in top halfof the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

COOK COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNOLFORSCBOOLPERFORMANCE

The Council for School Perfonnance begins annual reporting on school system perfonnance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Perfonnanc:e Report is designed to provide information to parents. educators. community members. and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided dircctly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verifY some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report. look at the number ofstars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators arc equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
arc better, such as dropout rates. JDQ8 stars means l2sr dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
SIP' arc shown by percentage point differences (white-Ie minus baa-Ie; male% minus female%).

System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

CRAWFORD COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

1bc Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. 1bc information can be used for school improvement and aa:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report. look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about
average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average~ fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system perfonned in the top half of systems in the state.
PLlASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators arc equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stan always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, IUCb as dropout rates,!!:!2G stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps are Ibown by percentage point differences (wbite% minus black%~ male-Ie minus femaleO....).

All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators arc equally important to every community. Usc your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents. educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided direct1y by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means klBr dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps are shown by pen:entage point differences (white% minus blacJcOle; male% minus female%).

DAWSON COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE .
The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average~ fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators arc equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
arc better, such as dropout rates, m2G stars means 12m dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps arc shown by percentage point differences (white% minus b~~~ maleO/o minus female%).

********* *** **

t

System is in the top 2oe~ of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 4oe~). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 60%). System is below average for similar systems (lower 400/0). System is in the lowest 200~ of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end ofan indicator means lower absolute score is
better

DECATUR CITY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided direct1y by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average~ fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

given iDdieator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

.mr are better, such as dropout rates. ~ stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by percentage point differences (whiaco..... minus black%~ male% minus femaleO/o).

DEKALBCOUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCn. FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. AIl data used in caIc:ulating system scores were provided dircctly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the
Council caIc:ulated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about
average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

mr are better, such 81 dropout rates. ID2G stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

lIP' are shown by percentage point dift'erences (white% minus black%; maIet'1e minus female%).

DOOLY COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

'The Council fOJ' School Perfonnance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. 'Thc Pcrfonnancc Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. 'The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All da~ used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state SOUR:CS or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central SOUR:CS.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the
second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators arc equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
arc better, such as dropout rates, ~ stan means l2ur dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gap; arc shown by pcrc:cntqe point differences (whire-Ie minus black%; maJe% minus femaJe%).

**************
*t/
t

IH.I:\1> Syllem is in the top. 20ele of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 40%). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6()01e). System is below average for similar systems (lower 40%). System is in the lowest 20% of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems
At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is
better

document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents. educators. community members, and leaders.
The information can be used for school improvement and acc:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size. students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

mr given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by percentage point differences (white-..... minus black%; male% minus female%).

COUNca FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performanc:c begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
The infonnation can be used for school improvement and aa:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided dircctJy by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the
Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about
average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system perfonncd in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given iDdieator. (2) More stars always means better performanc:c relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such 81 dropout rates. ~ stars means lDm: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
JlIIII are shown by pen:entage point differences (white% minus black".; male% minus female-Ie).

DUBLIN CITY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performanc::e Report is designed to provide information to parents. educators. community members. and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size. students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system perfonned in the. top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better. such as dropout rates, IDQG stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps are shown by percentage point differences (wbite!'At minus black%; male% minus female%).

ECHOLS COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM mOT PERFORMANCE REPORT 0994-95)
COUNOL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leadcrs. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verifY some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the
second column means that the system.performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOD: (1) Not all indicators arc equally important to every community. Usc your judgment on the importance ofany
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
arc better, such u dropout rates, IIlQG stars means kzBr dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender ppI arc shown by percentaae point differences (whirco~ minus black%; malCO~ minus femalCO~).

ELBERT COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Perfonnance Report is designed to provide information to parents. educators. community members. and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided di~y by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate ofgrowth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

mr are better, such as dropout rates. mQG stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

pps are shown by percentage point differences (white-,... minus blacJcO,...; male% minus femaleOlO).

EMANUEL COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School PerfOI'lllllDCe begins annual reporting on school system perfOI'lllllDCe with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided dircctly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar syStems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than tIm:e stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

1,1&81 NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates. ~ stars means 1mm: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
ppI are shown by pen:entage point dift'erences (white-Ie minus blaclt%; maJe% minus femaJe%).

The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and aa:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators arc equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better perfonnance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores arc better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means ~ dropout ratcs. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender lIPS arc shown by percentage point difl'erenccs (whi~,4 minus black%; male% minus femaiCOIo).

FANNIN COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCll.. FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE .
The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this doc:umcnt. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates,!!!2B stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender ppI are shown by percentage point differences (whireol. minus bJacltOI.; maleo/. minus femaleO/o).

FLOYD COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Pcrfonnance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
The infonnation can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of JI'Owth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column meaDS that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLIASE NOD: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

mr given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

arc better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

J8PI arc shown by pen::entage point differences (whire-A1 minus bJa-/o; male% minus female%).

FORSYTH COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report; look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators arc equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such 81 dropout rates. JmG stan means Im!m: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
JIPI are shown by percentqe point cliffen:nc:es (white% minus blD-;e; male% minus female%).

FULTON COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide infonnation to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The infonnation can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate ofgrowth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, more stars means lower dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps are shown by percentage point differences (white% minus blackOlo; male% minus female%).

LEGEND System is in the top 20% of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 40%). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 60%). System is below average for similar systems (lower 40%). System is in the lowest 20% of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Pcrfonnanc:e Report is designed to provide infonilation to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and aa:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Counci1 calculatcd from state or central sources.

To understand the report. look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about averqe for similar sy_ms. Similar ~ms were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of ~ms in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance 9fany

given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

mr are better, such as dropout rates. ~ stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by percentage point diff'erences (whiteOA minus black4'A; male% minus female%).

GILMER COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reponing on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided direct1y by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top halfof systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps are shown by percentage point differences (whi~~ minus blackOlO; male% minus femaleOlO).

GLASCOCK COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for Sc:hool Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and acx:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. Sc:hool systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council cakulatcd from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
arc better, such as dropout rates, mm stars means I2Br dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps arc shown by percentage point differences (whitc% minus bladtOJe; male% minus female%).

***** **** *** **

System is in the top 20% of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top WJe). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6QO.4). System is below average for similar systems (lower 400Je). System is in the lowest 200.4 of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end ofan indicator means lower absolute score is better

GORDON COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1~94-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Perfonnanc:e Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and acxountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunc:h, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importanc:e of any

m r given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by percentage point difJ'erenc:es (whireeAl minus b~AI; male% minus female-AI).

.*****,**********
t

System is in the top 200Al of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top WAI). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6Q01o). System is below average for similar systems (lower 4()01o). System is in the lowest 200Al of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems
At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is
better

HARALSON COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCD... FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE .
11le Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system perfonnance with the pilot indicators in tllis document 11le Performance Report is designed to provide infonnation to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. 11le information can be used for school improvement and accounmbility. All dam used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the dam that the Council calculated from state or centtal sources.
To understand the report. look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's perfonnance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicaror. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout raleS,.IJl2B stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps are shown by percenmge point differences (whitC--" minus black--"; male% minus female%).

BARRIS COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCll. FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Pcrfonnancc begins annual reporting on school system perfonnance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Pcrfonnancc Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verifY some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the nwnber of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average~ fewer than three stars means below average. A chec:k in the sec:xmd c:oIumn meaDS that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indie:aton are cqually important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better perfonnancc relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, mm stars means Imm: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps are shown by pen:entage point differences (white% minus bl~.; maleOAt minus female%).

HART COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1.994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

Tbe Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The PerfOl'llllW:C Report is desipcd to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. Tbe information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
Toundcrstand the report. look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about
average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average~ fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system perfonned in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not a11.indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates,.IIlQR stars means Imm: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
pps arc shown by pcn::entagc point difJCI'CDCCS (whi~At minus bIaaceAt~ male% minus femaicOAt).

(2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, suchas dr9POUt rates, ~ stars means lower dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps are shown by percentage point differences (white% minus blackOlo; male% minus female%).

HENRY COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reponing on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system perfonned in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, IIH!B stan means l2Br dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps are shown by pen:entage point di1ferences (whi~" minus bJacJt-"; maJe% minus femaJe%).

IRWIN COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNaL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average~ fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system perfonned in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators an: equally important to every community. Use yOur judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores an: better, lOCh .. dropout rates, ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender ppI an: shown by pen:entage point differences (whiteo.... minus blac:ke; male-.... minus female%).

System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6()0 ). System is below average for similar systems (lower 4()01o). System is in the lowest 20-.... of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

JACKSON COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system perfonnance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided diRCt1y by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Usc your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means Jmm: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps are shown by percentqe point dift'erences (whitcO'" minus bJackO"'; male% minus female%).

System is below average for similar systems (lower 400"'). System is in the Iowcst 20-'" of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

JEFF DAVIS COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Perfonnance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's perfonnance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than t.hrce stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators arc equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

mr arc better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gapI are shown by percentage point ditrerences (White04 minus black04; male% minus female%).

System performed in top half ofthe state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

JEFFERSON COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. 1bc information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To undersIand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students cligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means bettcr than averagc~ fewer than three stars means below averagc. A check in the
second column means that the systcm performed in thc top half of systcms in the statc.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators arc equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means Isrsr dropout rates. (3) Systcm scores for indicators of racial and gcnder
gaps arc shown by percentage point di1I'erenc:es (white'.,. minus black4l.,.; malc% minus femalc%).

***** *********

t

System is in the top 20-.,. of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systcms (top W"'). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 60-1.). System is below averagc for similar systems (lower 4()O1.). System is in the lowest 200.,. of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolutc score is better

JOHNSON COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calc:u1ated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about averqe for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average~ fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the
second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOD: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany given indiadOr. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates. ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender pps are shown by percentage point dift'erences (white-Ie minus blact-le~ male% minus femaicOlo).

***** **** *** **

System is in the top 2001e of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 4()01e). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6(010). System is below average for similar systems (lower .coele). System is in the lowest 2001e of similar school systems. System perfonned in top half of the state school systems At the end ofan indicator means lower absolute score is better

LAMAR COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM Pn,OT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCll. FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, JII2G stan means lm!m dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender JlIPI are shown by percentqe point dift"erences (white-At minus bJaclt8At; malet'At minus femalet'At).

********* *** **

System is in the top 200At of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 4(010).
System is in middle range of similar systems (top OOOAt). System is below average for similar systems (lower 4(010). System is in the lowest 20% of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems
At the end ofan indicator means lower absolute score is

LANIER COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents. educators. community members. and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and aa:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided di~y by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council ca1aJlated from state or central sources.

To understand the report. look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given iDdieator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, mm stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
lIP' are sbown by percentage point differences (wbi~1e minus black4'le; malCOIe minus female%).

LEE COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT'PERFORMANCE REPORT (1;994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and acc::ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided direct1y by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the
Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system pcrfonned in the top half of systems in the state.
REASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means !2Br dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps are shown by percentage point dift'erences (whitcOAt minus black".; male% minus femalcOAt).

***** **** *** **

System is in the top 20% of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top WAt). System is in midd1e range of similar systems (top 6()OAt). System is below average for similar systems Oower 400At). System is in the lowest 200At of similar school systems. System perfonned in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is
better

LINCOLN COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCn. FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this doQlIIIC!nt. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be UICd for school improvement and ac:countability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided dim::tly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council caIodated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clusteRd based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the
second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

REASE NOD: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany

Biven iDdieator. (2) MoR stars always means better performance Rlative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

mr are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

lIP' arc shown by percentage point differences (wbite'~ minus bJae~; male'~ minus female%).

********* *** **

System is in the top 20% of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 40%). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6()0~). System is below average for similar systems (lower W~). System is in the lowest 2oe~ of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems
At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is
better

LONG COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The CouDcil for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot iDdicators in this document. The Performanc:e Repon is designed to provide information to parents. educators. community members, and leaders. The informatioa can be UICld for school improvement and lICCOUIdability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sourc:es or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central soun:es.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, aDd
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, RICh as dropout rates. DB stars means lmm: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
.... are sbown by percentqe point differences (white% minus black%; malcOA minus femalc%).

LUMPKIN COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the
Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of sI3rs in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More ~ three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top halfof systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

mr arc better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

pps are shown by percentage point dift"erences (white-A. minus bIacJcOA.; male% minus female%).

************
.**,*

System is in the top 200!e of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 400!e). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 60%). System is below average for similar systems (lower 400A.). System is in the lowest 200!e of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

MADISON COUNlY SCHOOL SYSTEM rn..OT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCn.. FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system perfonnance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the
Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report. look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates,!!lQR stars means hmsI dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps are shown by pen:cntage point differences (whitee.4 wnus black%; maleo/. minus female%).

MARION COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1'94-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE .

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members. and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and acc:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the nUmber of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price IWlCh, and
nte of growth. More than three stars means better than average~ fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the scc:ond column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOD: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany
given iDdicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates. IJ:H!G stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps are shown by percentage point differences (whi~/. minus blacJt4l/~ male-" minus female-,,).

********* *****

System is in the top 20-" of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 4()0/.). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6()0"). System is below average for similar systems (lower 4()0"). System is in the lowest 20-" of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is
better

MCDUFFIE COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

Tbc Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. Tbc Performance Report is designed to provide infonnation to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. Tbc infonnation can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars'mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLIME NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

mr are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by percentage point di1ferences (white% minus blacJtOI'e; malec'At minus female%).

MCINTOSH COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system perfonnance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All ~ta used in calculating system scores were provided direct1y by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculatcd from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's perfonnance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

mr given indicator. (2) More stars always means better perfonnance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

are better, such as dropout rates. ~ stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by percentage point cWferences (wbi~1O minus blackOlO; male% minus femaleOlO).

MERIWETHER COUNTY
SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Perfonnance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state soun::cs or school systems. School systems were not able to verifY some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central soun::cs.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size. students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the 'second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators arc equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores arc heUer, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps arc shown by percentage point differences (whitCO'" minus blackO".; male% minus female%).

System is in the top 20-". of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top W"'). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6()lI"'). System is below average for similar systems (lower W"'). System is in the lowest 20-". of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end ofan indicator means lower absolute score is better

MITCHELL COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCD.. FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the
Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

NASI NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

given indicator. (2) More stars always.means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

mr are better, such as dropout I'lItcs. ~ stan means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

ppI are sbown by pen:entqe point cliJferences (white% minus black"e; mateOAt minus femate%).

Syllcm is in the top 20eAt of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top WAt). SyIlcm is in middle range of similar systems (top 60%). SyIlcm is below average for similar systems (lower WAt). System is in the lowest 20eAt of similar school systems. SyIlcm performed in top half of the state school systems
At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is
better

MONROE COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNOL FORSCBOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Perfonnance begins annual reporting on school system perfonnance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performanc:e Report is designed to provide infonnation to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The infonnation can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's perfonnance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top halfof systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better perfonnance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means Jmm: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps are shown by percentage point cWferences (whiteOAa minus b~Aa; maleOlt. minus female%).

MONTGOMERY COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. TIle Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, conimunity members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directJy by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the
second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

mr are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by pen:cntage point differences (white-A. minus blackOA.; male% minus female%).

System is in the top 2()OA. of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top WA.). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 60%). Sylltem is below average for similar systems (lower WA.). System is in the lowest 2()OA. of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the.state school systems
At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is

MORGAN COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about
average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

mr given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

are better, such as dropout rates,!!!Sn stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by percentage point di1ferences (whi~.4 minus bladtO.4; maIeO.4 minus femaIeO.4).

********* *** **
~ *
t

System is in the top 20-.4 of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top W;O). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6()O;O). System is below average for similar systems (lower 40-/.). System is in the lowest 20% of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

MUSCOGEE COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCD.. FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Perfonnance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top halfof systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, more stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps are shown by percentage point differences (white-,.. minus black%; male% minus female%).

OCONEECOUNlY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPOliT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School PerfOI'lUDCe bepns annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sourc:es or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calc:ulatcd from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (l) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates,!!!SG stars means Jmm: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
PPI are shown by percentage point differences (wbitd'~ minus b~~; maleO~ minus female%).

.*****,**********

I I- (.1 :\1)
System is in the top 2oe~ of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 4()0~). Sysaem is in middle range of similar systems (top 6()1'~). System is below average for similar systems (lower 4()0~). System is in the lowest 20% of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end ofan indicator means lower absolute score is better

OGLETHORPE COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for Scbool Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided dircctly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the
Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community, Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) M~ stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such II dropout rates, ID2B stars means lmm: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
ppI are shown by percentap point cWfercnces (white% minus bJack4'.4; male% minus femalc%).

S)'IICID is below average for similar systems (lower WIO), S)'IICID is in the lowest 200/. of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems
At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is

PEACH COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1'94-95)
COUNcnL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members. and leaders.
The information can be used for school improvement and aa:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system perfonned in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (l) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, mm stars means 12m dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gap5 are shown by percentage point ditrerences (white-" minus bJa-"; maleC'''' minus female%).

PICKENS COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information c:an be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Usc your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stan always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means lmm: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
lIP' are shown by percentage point differences (white% minus blackOl.; male% minus female%).

PIKECOUNlY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Perfonnanc:e begins annual reponing on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, communiiy members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and acx:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's perfonnanc:e is about
average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means I2Br dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
PIlI are shown by percentage point differences (whiteO~ minus b~~; male% minus femaleO~).

**************
*tI'
t

1 1 (,1 \1)
System is in the top 2oe~ of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top WI.). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6oe1.). System is below average for similar systems (lower WAl). System is in the lowest 2oe~ of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state scJ100l systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

POLK COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system perfonnance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Perfonnance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps are shown by percentage point differences (white% minus black4'/.; male% minus female%).

System is in the top 20-1e of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 4Q01e). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6()01e).

System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

PUTNAM COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided dircctly by either state sources or school Systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators arc equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores arc better, such u dropout rates, ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender pps arc shown by pen:entage point differences (white% minus black%; male% minus female%).

********* *****
~ *
t

System is in the top 20-" of similar school systems. System is above avelllle for similar systems (top 40-,,). System is in middle range of similar systems (top ~"). System is below averale for similar systems (lower W"). System is in the lowest 20-" of similar school systems. System perfonncd in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

RABUN COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1:994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOn:: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means J2nr dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
J8PI are shown by percentage point differences (white% minus b~le; male-At minus femalCOAt).

COUNaL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
Tbc Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. Tbc information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PJi'iMI NOD: (1) Not all indicators arc equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany given iDdiador. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
arc better, such as dropout rates, JI!2G stars means I2mrr dropout ratcs. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps arc shown by perccntqe point differences (white% minus blacJc-le; male% minus femaicOlo).

RICHMOND COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCBOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this docwnent. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided dircctly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better.than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates,.l!I2G stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps are shown by percentage point dift'erences (white-Ai minus bJaclt4'te; rnale% minus fernale%).

System is below average for similar systems (lower 4oete). System is in the lowest 20ete of similar school systems. System performed in top halfof the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

ROCKDALE COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1~94-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Perfonnance begins annual reporting on school system perfonnance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Perfonnance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data uSed in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's perfonnance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the
second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better perfonnance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, more stars means lower dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps are shown by percentage point differences (white% minus blackOlo; male% minus female%).

ROME CITY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided direaly by either state soun:es or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central soun:es.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clusteRd based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are bcUcr,such as dropout rates,lIl2B stars means Jmm: dropout ratcs. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
JIPI are shown by pcrcentagc point differences (whitcOle minus black%; malcOle minus female%).

SCHLEY COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, commwlity members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided din=ctly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than tIlRc stars means better than average; fewer than tIlRc stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEAS' NOD: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every commwlity. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, IUCh II dropout rates. IJ.UB stars means Ism:m: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gapI are shown by percentap point differences (whi~~ minus black%; male% minus female%).

**************

t

System is ill the top 20% of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top WAI). Sylllcm is in middle range of similar systems (top 6()lIAI). System is below average for similar systems (lower 40%). System is in the lowest 20% of similar school systems. Sylllcm performed in top halfof the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

SEMINOLE COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual Jq)Orting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is desiped to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central soun:cs.

To understand the Jq)Ort, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system perfonned in the top half of systems in the state.

"tiME NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

mr are better, such as dropout rates, 11l2G stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by percentage point differences (white-.4 minus bJack4'.4; male% minus female%).

SOCIAL CIRCLE CI1Y SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCBOOL PERFORMANCE

1bc Council for School Performance begiD$ annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. 1bc Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
1bc information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either stale sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, JnQG stars means I2nr dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gapI are shown by percentage point differences (Whitel'h minus blacIt-h; maleO~ minus female%).

STEPHENS COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1~94-9S)
COUNCll. FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The infonnation can be used for school improvement and aa::ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A cbec:k in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

mr given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

are better,. such as dropout rates, ~ stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by percentage point differences (whiteOle minus blac:kOle; male% minus female%).

At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is

STEWART COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The CouDcil for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
documcDt. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and aa:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Usc your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores arc better, such as dropout rates. IIUlR stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender PIlI arc shown by percentage point difl'ereDCCS (wbitd'ie minus bJackOIe; malcOle minus femaicOle).

SUMTER COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents. educators. community members. and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and aa:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the CouDciI cak:ulated from state or central sources.

To UDdcrstand the report. look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size. students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system perfonned in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

mr are better. such as dropout rates, ~ stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by percentage point diff'ereooes (white-" minus bl~/e; maleO" minus female%).

**************

t

I ILI':\I)
System is in the top 20% of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top WAI). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6()0"). System is below average for similar systems (lower WAI). System is in the lowest 20-" of similar school systems. System perfonned in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not.all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better perfonnance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means 12m dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps are shown by percentage point differences (whi~-" minus black%; male% minus female%).

TALIAFERRO COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCD... FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide "information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the
Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's perfonnance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewcr.than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

mr are better, such as dropout rates, IIl2.B stan means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps an: shown by peR:CDtale point dift'eraaces (whiteO~ minus b~/.; male% minus femaleO~).

.*****,**********
t

System is in the top 20% of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 4()8.4). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6()0~). System is below averase for similar systems (lower 4oe~). System is in the lowest 20% of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end ofan indicator means lower absolute score is better

TATTNALLCOUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNca FOll"SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performana: begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided direct1y by either state sourteS or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the
Council calculated from state or central sourteS.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three starsrnean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates. ~ stars means JD:m dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
ppI are shown by percentage point differences (whi~.4 minus b~.4; male% minus female%).

TELFAIR COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system perfonnance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided dircct1y by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central soun:e5.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany
Biven indicator. (2) More stars aiwaysmcans better perfonnance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, I!!2G stars means lmm: dropout ratcs. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps are shown by percentage point differences (whitei''' minus black41"; male% minus female%).

The Council for School Perfonnanc::e begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Pcrfonnanc::e Report is designed to provide infonnation to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems.

THOMAS COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The CouDcil for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The infonnation can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided dir=ly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better perfonnanc:e relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, B!QR stars means !2Br dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
lIPS are shown by percentage point ditrerences (white-" minus b~.4; maleO" minus female-Ie).

THOMASVILLE CITY SCHOOL SYSTEM moT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system perfonnance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the
Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about averqc for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top halfof systems in the state.
PLEAS' NOTE: (I) Not all indicators arc equally important to every community. Usc your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
arc better, such as dropout rates.!n2G stars means Jmm: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
lIP' arc shown by percentage point differences (whitet'.4 minus bJack4t.4; male-.4 minus female%).

**************

I I (,1-''\1)
System is in the top 20-.4 of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 40%). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6()0.4). System is below average for similar systems (lower 4oe.4). System is in the lowest 20% of similar school systems. System perfonned in top half of the stale school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

TIFf COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNaLFORSCBOOLPERFORMANCE

The Council for School Perfonnance begins annual reponing on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Perfonnance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average~ fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better perfonnance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps are shown by percentage point differences (whitet'.4 minus blackO.4~ maleO.4 minus femaleO.4).

TOWNS COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (\994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents. educators. community members. and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size. students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ohny

given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

mr are better. such as dropout rates. ~ stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by percentage point differences (whi~~ minus bJD-~ maleO~ minus femaleOle).

TRION CITY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1.994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
The infonnation c::an be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council c:alcu1ated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and
rate ofgrowth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the
second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, mm stars means 12m dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
lIP' are shown by percentage point differences (white% minus bJack4l4; male% minus femaleO/o).

COUNCn, FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided dired1y by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central soun:es.
To understand the report, look at the number of stan in the first column. Three stan mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NQTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates. ~ stars means l2Br dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps are shown by percentage point differences (whiteOJe minus black%; male% minus female%).

System is in the top2oeJe of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 4o-Je). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6()OJe). System is below average for similar systems (lower 4o-Je). System is in the lowest 20% of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

lWIGGS COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The CouDciI for Scbool Performanoc begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. 1bc PerfOl1DlUlCC Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The infonnation can be UIed for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state soun:es or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calcu1ated from state or central soun:es.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOD: (I) Not all indicators arc equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performanoc relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores arc better, such 81 dropout rates, IIUlB stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racia1 and gender gapI arc Ibown by pen:entagc point differences (white% minus biD-Ie; male% minus female-Ie).

COUNaL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system perfonnance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and aa:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means ~ dropout rates.

VALDOSTA CITY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

1bc Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. 1bc Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. 1bc information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state soun:es or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the
Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the
second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany

given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

mr are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by percentage point dift'erences (whitcOAt minus bIaaeAt; male% minus female%).

.,**************
*
t

System is in the top 20eAt of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 4()OAt). System is in middle range of similar systems (top ~At). System is below average for similar systems (lower WAt).
System is in the lowest 20eAt of similar school systems. System performed in top half ofthe state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

WALKER COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM Pn,OT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNcn. FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided dircc:tly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verifY some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about avcrage for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than avcrage; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOD: (1) Not all indicators arc equally important to every community. Usc your judgment on the importance ofany givcn indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores arc better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps arc shown by percentage point differences (whitcO" minus blackO"; male-" minus female%).

System is in the top 200" of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 4Q01o). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 600"). System is below average for similar systems (lower 4QO"). System is in the lowest 200" of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

WALTON COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE
The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report. look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates, m2B stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender gaps are shown by percentage point differences (white4'1e minus blacJc-le; male% minus female%).

System is below average for similar systems (lower 400/0). System is in the lowest 2()1'Ie of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state schoolsy5tems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

WARREN COUNTY
SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (19'4-95)
COUNOL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performana: Report is designed to provide infonnation to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided diJ'edly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report. look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about
average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second coIunm means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOD: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

mr given iDdieator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stan means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

ppI are shown by percentage point differences (White-A minus bJackOA; male-A minus female%).

Sylltem is in the top 20eA of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 4001.). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6001.). System is below average for similar systems (lower 40%). System is in the lowest 20eA of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems
At the end of an iDdieator means lower absolute score is

WAYNE COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. TIle Performance Report is designed to provide infonnation to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and acc:ountability. All data used in calculating system scores were
provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

mr given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gaps are shown by percentage point differences (whitce~ minus b~/.; male% minus female%).

WEBSTER COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the
Council calculated from state or central roun:es.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about
average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch. and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second a>lumn means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASE NOD:: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are bcUer. such u dropout rates, DHB stars means Imm dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
ppI are shown by pen:eDtaae point differences (wbiteO" minus blackOAt; male% minus femaleOlo).

WHITE COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCn. FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators. community members, and leaders. The infonnation can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the nwnbcr of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free: or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any
given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores
are better, such as dropout rates, ~ stars means Jmm: dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender
gaps are shown by percentage point differences (white% minus blaaceAa; male% minus female%).

System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

wn.cOXCOUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM Pn.QT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUN~ FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

Tbe CouDciI for ScbooI Performance bepns annual reponing on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this doc:umcmt The PerforDllllCe Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and I~. The infCll'lllllioll caD be ued for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores wen:
provided directly by either ItaIe sources or school systems. School systems wen: not able to verify some of the data that the Council caIc:uIated from stale or centrallOUJ"CCS.
To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about
average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for fRe or reduc:ed price lunch; and rate of growth. More than three stars means better than averaF~ fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system pcrfol'lMd in the top half of systems in the state.
PLIASI NOD: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the imponanee of any gMa indicMor. (2) More Itan always meaDS better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators when: lower scores are better, IUCb u dropout .... JIIB Itan means I5zB[ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender ppI are IbowD by pen:cI'laF point cIifI'enaceI (wbitc% minus black%; male% minus female%).

nerqc for similar systcmI. Similar S)'ItCIDS were clustered bued on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and rile of powth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the IeCODd column means that the system performed in the top bait of systems in the state.

lI,IME NOD: (1) Not all indicaton are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any

mr given iDtlirNor. (1) More stan always meaDS better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

are better, such u dropout rates. JIlSlm stan means

dropout ntes. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

.... are Ibown by pen:enaap point dift'creDCeI (wbite% minus black%; malc% minus fcmalc%).

W~KINSON COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM moT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNC~ FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

Tbc Council for School Performance begins annuall'q)Orting on school system performance with the pilot iitdicators in this
document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members, and leaders.
Tbc information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the Council calculated from state or central sources.

To understand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the
second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.

PLEASt NOIE: (1) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance ofany

given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores

.mr are better, such U dropout rates, ~ stan means

dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender

gap5 are shown by percentage point dift'erenccs (whitCOle minus black4'~; maleOle minus female%).

***** **** *** **
~ *
t

System is in the top 2e>-1e of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top 4()01e). System is in middle range of similar systems (top ~Ie). System is below average for similar systems (lower 4()01e). System is in the lowest 2e>-1e of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the state school systems At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is better

WORTH COUNTY SCHOOL SYSTEM PILOT PERFORMANCE REPORT (1994-95)
COUNCIL FOR SCHOOL PERFORMANCE

The Council for School Performance begins annual reporting on school system performance with the pilot indicators in this document. The Performance Report is designed to provide information to parents, educators, community members. and leaders. The information can be used for school improvement and accountability. All data used in calculating system scores were provided directly by either state sources or school systems. School systems were not able to verify some of the data that the
Council calculated from state or central sources.
To undentand the report, look at the number of stars in the first column. Three stars mean that a system's performance is about average for similar systems. Similar systems were clustered based on size, students eligible for free or reduced price lunch, and
rate of growth. More than three stars means better than average; fewer than three stars means below average. A check in the second column means that the system performed in the top half of systems in the state.
PLEASE NOTE: (I) Not all indicators are equally important to every community. Use your judgment on the importance of any given indicator. (2) More stars always means better performance relative to similar systems. For indicators where lower scores are better, such as dropout rates. ~ stars means ~ dropout rates. (3) System scores for indicators of racial and gender lIPS are shown by percentage point difl'erences (white-A. minus black-I.; male% minus female%).

***** **** *** **

System is in the top 2oeA. of similar school systems. System is above average for similar systems (top WA.). System is in middle range of similar systems (top 6Q8A.). System is below average for similar systems (lower WIo). System is in the lowest 2oeA. of similar school systems. System performed in top half of the 'State school systems
At the end of an indicator means lower absolute score is
