SC Education Panel Releases Website To Evaluate Schools

»  Comments | Post a Comment

COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) - A state education panel has created a database on the Internet it hopes will allow people to better evaluate South Carolina's public schools.


     

The Education Oversight Committee's new online database allows viewers to search for schools based on several criteria, including performance ratings, number of students and poverty levels. It also includes searches for percentage of teachers with advanced degrees, teacher retention rates and per-pupil spending.


     

Report cards were provided online at the state Education Department's Web site. But that site organized the data by year, district and school level.
