The Charlotte School System
Charlotte, North Carolina, is the most populous city in the state, boasting almost 860,000 residents. The greater metropolitan area has a population of about 2.6 million and is regarded as the fastest growing metro area in the nation. The majority of the city’s estimated 148,000 students attend the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools (CMS) district, which supervises more than 160 public schools.
Varsity Tutors can help your child from the first day of kindergarten all the way through college graduation. It’s vital that students receive the academic support they need to reach their learning potential at all stages of their learning journey.
If you’re curious how well the schools in your area are preparing their students, take a look at the table below.
Charlotte Test Scores
Students throughout the nation face similar exams such as the SAT and ACT as they approach the end of their high school careers. Students in Charlotte, however, must also prepare for various End of Grade (EOG) exams as early as third grade. These exams test students' mastery of the concepts they learned during the current school year and are given every year through eighth grade. Once students reach high school, they face a more extensive range of EOG exams, which can include math, biology, economics, algebra 1, English, civics and economics, chemistry, and others.
Private tutors can help your child prepare for any of the standardized exams they will face throughout their school years, but a professional tutor in Charlotte can do so much more! When your child meets a new concept that they can’t master, it can negatively impact their confidence. By working with a tutor, your child becomes more aware that all children have different learning styles, and this can help them grow more accepting of themselves when they struggle. This boost of confidence can be pivotal in helping a child learn to persevere even when faced with academic adversity
When you live in a large city such as Charlotte, it can be easy to assume that the sheer size of the educational system should ensure high-quality education. However, this is not always the case. Even the city’s most highly ranked schools don't stand out when compared to the rest of the state. The table below outlines how the best schools in the city compare to those in the rest of the state.
