Summary
Report of Student Performance
on the North Carolina Competency Standard, 2003-04
Historical
Background
• North Carolina’s belief that all children can learn is consistent
with the requirement that all students must be provided
academic challenges in order to ensure that every child has an
opportunity to realize his or her potential. Consistent with this
belief has been an assessment requirement to measure what
students know and are able to do as graduates of North
Carolina public schools. To assure that students possess the
knowledge and skills necessary to function independently and
successfully in assuming the responsibilities of citizenship,
North Carolina has required students to meet a graduation
testing standard since 1978 for the class of 1981. Initially the
competency testing program focused on competencies that
students need to possess as a minimum in the areas of reading,
mathematics, and grammar in order to graduate from high
school. In 1985-86, the program was expanded to include a
minimum skills writing component which was eliminated
1988-89. Effective with the graduates of 1998, students were
expected to meet a higher standard in reading and
mathematics. The results in this report focus on student
performance on the higher standard.
• Note: The State Board of Education approved revisions to the
North Carolina Mathematics Standard Course of Study at the
May 1998 monthly meeting. Effective with the 2000-01
school year, North Carolina mathematics tests measure the
goals and objectives from the 1998 curriculum. Prior to the
1998 revision, the state mathematics curriculum had been
revised in 1989 (grades K-8) and 1992 (grades 9-12). Due to
the 1998 revisions in the mathematics curriculum and the
revised tests, the mathematics developmental scale scores were
revised for the grade 3 pretest and end-of-grade tests. The
revised mathematics developmental scale scores adopted by
the State Board of Education in September 2001 are used to
report student performance in this publication beginning with
2000-01 data. Any mathematics scales reported prior to the
2000-01 school year are not to be compared without using the
conversion tables published September 2001. The end-of-course
mathematics tests (Algebra I, Algebra II, and
Geometry) retained the scale previously used.
Report of Student Performance on the North Carolina Competency Standard, 2003-04
Background • The class of 1998 was the first class required by State Board of
Education policy to meet a higher competency standard in the
areas of reading and mathematics in order to receive a high
school diploma. The students graduating at the end of the
1997-98 school year were required to demonstrate grade-level
proficiency (Achievement Level III or IV) on the eighth-grade
reading and mathematics tests, the competency tests, or other
approved screens.
• Data used to compile this report were provided by the LEAs
from the Student Information Management System (SIMS) and
Masterbuild data files. The data files were generated using test
results from students up to July 15, 2004.
Key Findings • The percentage of students passing the competency standard
increases with each grade although the number of students in
membership generally decreases as students progress through
the grades. Of eighth-graders, 77.8 percent passed the standard
in the 2003-04 school year, while 78.1 percent of ninth graders,
86.1 percent of tenth graders, 91.4 percent of eleventh graders,
and 94.1 percent of twelfth-graders met the requirement.
• There are fewer differences in percent passing by ethnicity at
grade 12 with better than 88.6 percent of all subgroups passing.
At the end of grade 8, however, students in the Hispanic,
Black, and American Indian subgroups pass at a lower rate
than students in the White, Asian, and Multi-Racial subgroups.
This pattern holds for the classes of 2006 and 2007 with
between 30.9 percent and 51.3 percent of Hispanic, Black, and
American Indian students not passing the competency standard
by the end of grade 9.

Introduction
The Report of Student Performance on the North Carolina Competency Standard
provides information on student performance at the state, regional, and school system
levels for students in the classes of 2000-2008. The data used to compile this report were
provided by each LEA represented and are managed at the school and school system
levels. The data were collected using a variety of strategies including analyzing
electronically scored data files and reviewing masterbuild files. LEA test coordinators
submitted the data from each LEA for this report to the NCDPI, and Regional
Accountability Coordinators approved the data represented in this report.
The requirement for graduates of 1998 or beyond represents a more rigorous standard
than the minimum competency requirement implemented initially in 1978 for the class of
1981. The more recent standard implemented by the State Board of Education in 1995
requires students to demonstrate mastery of grade-level competencies in reading and
mathematics equivalent to grade 8 as described in the North Carolina Standard Course of
Study. In order to demonstrate the requirement, a student must achieve performance
equivalent to Achievement Level III or above beginning with the North Carolina End-of-
Grade Tests in Reading and Mathematics administered at the end of grade 8 and a State
Board of Education alternative (screen).
Students who fail the initial screen at grade 8 must be given at least one opportunity to
pass the test(s) beginning as early as the summer after grade 8 and each year thereafter
until the standard is met. LEAs are permitted to administer the competency tests in the
summer, fall, and spring of each year (and during the last month of school for seniors
only). Students are required to retake only the tests they do not pass. According to
legislation and State Board of Education policy, any students who fail to pass the
competency standard by the end of the ninth grade are given focused remedial instruction
and additional opportunities to take the test(s) up to and including the last month of the
twelfth grade. In addition, students who have failed to pass the competency standard by
the end of the last school month of the year in which the students’ class graduates, may
receive additional remedial instruction and continue to take the competency tests during
regularly scheduled testing sessions until the students reach maximum school age (21).
The purpose of this document is to report the performance of students in the classes of
2000-2008 on the more rigorous competency standard as of the 2003-04 school year.
Previously published Reports of Student Performance on the North Carolina Competency
Standard displayed LEA level data in the pie chart series in this report; beginning in
2002-03, charter school data are also included. A PDF version of this report is available
at http://www.ncpublicschools.org/accountability/testing/reports.
i
Report of Student Performance on the North Carolina Competency Standard, 2003-04
Background and Findings
Background • North Carolina General Statute 115C-174.11 mandates that the
State Board of Education adopt tests or other measurement
instruments which may be used to assure that graduates of the
public high schools, and graduates of non-public high schools
supervised by the State Board of Education, possess the skills and
knowledge necessary to function independently and successfully
in assuming the responsibilities of citizenship.
Graduation
Proficiency
Guidelines
• At its February 1995 meeting, the State Board of Education
approved Grade-Level Proficiency Guidelines and Graduation
Proficiency Guidelines that include replacing the less stringent
1978 North Carolina competency standard with more rigorous
standards in reading and mathematics as measured by North
Carolina End-of-Grade (EOG) Tests.
The Current Standard • Beginning in 1994-95 with ninth graders, the higher standard
requires students to demonstrate grade eight proficiency by
performing at Achievement Level III or above on the reading and
mathematics competency tests in order to receive a North
Carolina high school diploma.
Competency
Requirement
Guidelines
• The competency requirement guidelines, as indicated in SBE
policies HSP-C-016 and HSP-N-000, were revised in 1999. These
policies include establishing Achievement Level III or above as
the standard for grades 3 through 8, and “grade-level standards at
the end of the year” for grades K through 2, respectively.
Furthermore, intervention/remediation is required for students not
meeting the standard.
Regulations Governing
the Competency Tests
• Regulations concerning the competency requirement have not
changed although the tests have been replaced effective with the
class of 1998. With regard to the competency requirements,
LEAs are legally required to:
• test students beginning no later than grade 9, (which was
changed from grade 10), effective with the passage of
Senate Bill 1125 for the 1997-98 school year;
• offer remedial instructional opportunities to students not
meeting the requirement;
• provide additional opportunities for students to retake the
tests at least one time, up to three times, per year; and,
• provide seniors with an additional opportunity to retake the
tests during the last month of school.
ii
Report of Student Performance on the North Carolina Competency Standard, 2003-04
Cut Scores for the
Competency Tests
• The Achievement Level III or above standard requires a student to
take the grade 8 end-of-grade tests in reading and mathematics or
equivalent tests given as competency tests at the high school level.
• The Achievement Level III performance on the
2003-04 EOG reading tests is scale scores at or
above 254.
• The Achievement Level III performance on the
2003-04 EOG mathematics tests is scale scores at or
above 261.
• No standard error of the mean is considered when
determining whether students meet the competency
standard for reading or mathematics.
• The mathematics operational test was implemented in 2000-01;
therefore, the mathematics cutoff scores for students who entered
the eighth grade in 2000-01 were revised. Similarly, the reading
cutoff scores were revised for students who entered the eighth
grade in 2003-04.
• The cutoff scores for students who entered
the eighth grade in 1993-94 through 1999-00 are:
Reading: at or above a scale score of 156,
Mathematics: at or above a scale score of 165.
• The cutoff scores for students who entered the
eighth grade in 2000-01 are:
Reading: at or above a scale score of 156,
Mathematics: at or above a scale score of 256.
• The cutoff scores for students who entered the
eighth grade in 2001-02 are:
Reading: at or above a scale score of 156,
Mathematics: at or above a scale score of 261.
• The cutoff scores for students who entered
the eighth grade in 2002-03 are:
Reading: at or above a scale score of 254,
Mathematics: at or above a scale score of 261.
iii
Report of Student Performance on the North Carolina Competency Standard, 2003-04
Cut Scores for the
Competency Tests
(continued)
• The cutoff scores for students who entered
the eighth grade in 2003-04 are:
Reading: at or above a scale score of 254,
Mathematics: at or above a scale score of 261.
Test Administrations
• Students who do not achieve the above scores have not met the
competency standard.
• LEAs may schedule as many as three test administrations each
school year: once in the summer, once in the fall (must
accommodate seniors graduating in December), and once in the
spring (must accommodate seniors).
• LEAs may schedule up to four test administrations per year for
seniors: summer prior to grade 12, fall, spring, and last month.
• Each student who has failed to meet the requirement must be
given at least one opportunity each year (beginning in grade nine)
to retake the test(s) though LEAs may elect to give students an
opportunity to retake the tests during each cycle.
• Accommodations are available for students with disabilities or
students who are identified as limited English proficient.
• Different equivalent forms of the tests are rotated for each of the
scheduled test administrations.
Screening on Other
Measures to Permit
Students to Satisfy the
Competency Standard
• If a student has scores from the grade 8 North Carolina EOG
reading comprehension and mathematics tests, the scores must be
used to determine whether the student has met the competency
requirements. If for some reason a student does not have such
scores, other screening(s) may occur. The screenings described
below are approved to be used for students who transfer into the
North Carolina system after grade 8.
Nationally-
Normed Tests
• Scores from a standardized, nationally-normed test, normed on a
sample representative of the public school population in 1992 or
later, may be used for competency screening. Scores from grade 8
or higher are preferred. The cut scores for screening for these
tests are:
• Reading or verbal: at or above the 50th national percentile.
• Mathematics or quantitative: at or above the 50th national
percentile.
iv
Report of Student Performance on the North Carolina Competency Standard, 2003-04
PSAT or SAT • The following PSAT or SAT scores may be used for
competency screening:
o Reading or verbal: at or above a verbal score of 40 on the
PSAT, 400 on the SAT (48 and 480 on the recentered
scale).
o Mathematics or quantitative: at or above a mathematics
score of 45 on the PSAT and 450 on the SAT (48 and 480
on the recentered scale).
Seventh Grade
End-of-Grade
Tests
• In the event that North Carolina EOG scores, scores from
nationally-normed tests, and scores from the PSAT or SAT are not
available, seventh-grade EOG scores may, as a last resort, be used
for screening purposes. Acceptable scores are the same as for
grade 8.
• The cut scores for students who entered
the eighth grade in 1993-94 through 1999-00 are:
Reading: at or above a scale score of 156,
Mathematics: at or above a scale score of 165.
• The cut scores for students who entered
the eighth grade in 2000-01 are:
Reading: at or above a scale score of 156,
Mathematics: at or above a scale score of 256.
• The cut scores for students who entered
the eighth grade in 2001-02 are:
Reading: at or above a scale score of 156,
Mathematics: at or above a scale score of 261.
• The cut scores for students who entered
the eighth grade in 2002-03 are:
Reading: at or above a scale score of 254,
Mathematics: at or above a scale score of 261.
• The cut scores for students who entered
the eighth grade in 2003-04 are:
Reading: at or above a scale score of 254,
Mathematics: at or above a scale score of 261.
v
Report of Student Performance on the North Carolina Competency Standard, 2003-04
Strategies and
Interventions
Implemented to
Increase Performance
• The North Carolina Department of Public Instruction (NCDPI) has
provided a North Carolina Competency Resource Guide that
provides information to educators working to provide remedial
instruction to students who have failed the tests.
• Competency student handbooks have been provided to LEAs for
students to use to get an understanding of what the tests are like
and to provide information about the requirement.
• Resources such as sample items and test information sheets and
training on how to use the competency resource guidebook have
been made available to LEAs.
• Sample grade 8 reading and mathematics test items are available
on the NCDPI/Testing Program website:
www.ncpublicschools.org/accountability/testing/eog
Data Verification • The LEAs provided the NCDPI with a pass/fail flag for each
student enrolled by submitting a “masterbuild” file in the spring
of 2004. LEAs exclude visiting, transfer, and foreign-exchange
students based on an NCDPI directive.
Data Sources • Since data became available for the 2000-01 school year, some
required reporting variables were added by merging the
“masterbuild” file with other testing files where the required
variables had been collected. For 2003-04, the merge included
grade 8 end-of-grade data from 2000-01 through 2003-04 and all
end-of-course files from 2000-01 through 2003-04. Information
from the other testing files was only applied to a student record
when the student’s last name, identification number, and gender
were identical; therefore, information was not obtained for
students where name or identification number changed or was
miscoded. Also, duplicates, when found, were removed to reflect
the most recent complete data.
State Results by
Ethnicity for
Eighth Grade
• The eighth grade end-of-grade tests in reading and mathematics
provide the first opportunity for students to meet the competency
requirement. During the 2003-04 school year, 77.8 percent of
eighth-grade students in North Carolina met the standard.
• Results by ethnicity for eighth graders varied with the White
student subgroup having the highest percent of students passing
and the Hispanic student subgroup having the lowest percent of
students passing. The percents passing for each subgroup were:
59.0 percent Hispanic, 63.0 percent Black, 71.7 percent American
Indian, 81.5 percent Multi-Racial, 83.8 percent Asian, and 86.9
vi
Report of Student Performance on the North Carolina Competency Standard, 2003-04
percent White.
State Results by
Ethnicity for
Ninth Grade
• Students who have not met the eighth-grade proficiency or screen
are required to take the North Carolina Competency Test of
Reading and Mathematics as one requirement for a North
Carolina high school diploma. According to legislation, all
students who have not achieved a passing score must be provided
the opportunity to take the competency tests in the ninth grade. In
2003-04, 78.1 percent of the students passed the competency
requirement by the end of the ninth grade. Results by ethnicity
varied with Hispanic students having the lowest percent passing
and White students have the highest percent passing by the end of
the ninth grade.
• Approximately 52.9 percent Hispanic, 65.2 percent Black, 69.1
percent American Indian, 79.8 percent Asian, 81.7 percent Multi-
Racial, and 87.6 percent White students passed the competency
requirement by the end of the ninth grade.
State Results by
Ethnicity for
Tenth Grade
• During the 2003-04 school year, approximately 86.1 percent of
the students passed the requirement by the end of the tenth grade.
• When viewing the results by ethnic group, a difference continues
to exist among the subgroups. The percents passing for each
subgroup by the end of tenth grade were: 66.8 percent Hispanic,
76.2 percent Black, 79.6 percent American Indian, 83.4 percent
Asian students, 86.9 percent Multi-Racial, and 92.4 percent
White.
State Results by
Ethnicity for Eleventh
Grade
• For the 2003-04 school year, approximately 91.4 percent of
students passed the competency standard by the end of eleventh
grade. The largest difference exists between the Hispanic
subgroup and the White subgroup. Approximately 79.1 percent of
Hispanic students passed the requirement while 94.9 percent of
White students passed the requirement by the end of the eleventh
grade.
• The percents passing for each subgroup were: 79.1 percent
Hispanic, 85.4 percent Black, 87.0 percent Asian, 89.8 percent
American Indian, 89.1 percent Multi-Racial, and 94.9 percent
White.
State Results by
Ethnicity for
Twelfth Grade
• For the 2003-04 school year, approximately 94.1 percent of
students passed the competency tests in twelfth grade. Results by
ethnicity varied with Hispanic and Black students having the
lowest percents passing and White students having the highest
percent passing by the end of the twelfth grade.
