Abstract:

Durham public schools are making small improvements in student proficiency, but when compared to its neighboring counties, Durham is identified as low performing. This designation gives the school district a negative connotation, and says nothing about the actual teaching and learning that is occurring. The district will implement a new improvement-monitoring plan to continue closing the achievement gap.
