About Our Rankings
CarolinaSchoolHub's independent rankings were developed to provide information on public schools in North and South Carolina. Our mission is to help parents in making informed decisions concerning their children's education.
CarolinaSchoolHub offers test scores and data on a total of 3,484 schools - including 2,407 schools in North Carolina and 1,077 schools in South Carolina. The rankings for each school are based on a combination of data from one or more of the following three categories, where appropriate:
- End-of-grade test scores for elementary and middle school years
- High school assessment data
- Schools’ student growth index
The pool of 3,484 schools includes data on 3,268 schools that are managed in most cases at the county or city level. We also offer ratings and other information on 216 independently managed charter schools.
