Note: The 2000-01 ABCs results in
this chart are prior to State Board of Education review.
1. 1996-97 was the first year of
implementation of the ABCs; only K-8 schools were included in the
model for this year.
2. 1997-98 was the first year of
implementation of the ABCs in high schools. (Schools whose grades
spanned K-12 were included in statistical summaries for both K-8 and
high schools, so there is duplication in these counts.)
3. The comprehensive ABCs model has
been applied since 1998-99; there is no duplication in these
counts.
4. This category was No Recognition
in 1996-97, Adequate Performance in 1997-98, and No Recognition in
1998-99, 1999-2000 and 2000-2001.
5. Total ABCs Schools is the total
number of schools participating in the ABCs for a given year; this
total does not reflect the sum of the column; Schools of Excellence
and Schools of Distinction are not exclusive categories and may
include schools that appear in other categories.
Caution: Comparisons across
years should be made with the above footnotes in mind.
