The ABC state standard was raised over the past two years but the Chapel Hill Carrboro School System has met the challenge. In a recent press release, the school system reports that four elementary schools (Seawell, Rashkis, Scroggs and Glenwood) all earned the Honor School of Excellence Award, given to schools in which 90 percent or more of students are proficient in reading and math and meet national AYP standards. Last year only Seawell and Rashkis earned that award. Ten other schools earned the School of Distinction label, given to schools where 80 to 90 percent of students are proficient in math and reading. The only school not receiving an award this year is Franklin Porter Graham Elementary which very narrowly missed the School of Distinction mark.
