THE PURPOSE OF EOGS/EOCS The North Carolina End-of- Grade (EOG) and End-of- Course (EOC) tests are designed to measure student performance on the goals, objectives, and grade-level competencies specified in the North Carolina Standard Course of Study.
Assessments: 1. Three i-Ready Diagnostics in math and reading 2. Two NC Check Ins in math and reading BENCHMARKS AT GSA THIS YEAR This year students have completed assessments that have helped them, their teachers, and the GSA school leaders see their strengths and greatest areas of need. Teachers and school leaders analyzed each student s data, remediated/retaught content, and re-assessed students to see their growth and celebrate standards mastery.
