Part 1 of the report explains the new indicators and charts in the report and provides an overview of the statewide findings. Appended to Part 1 is information on data sources and a discussion of the Leandro decision, a landmark court case concerning public education in North Carolina. Part 2, the bulk of the report, offers specific findings and trends over the past 10 years for all 100 counties and statewide information related to the Leandro decision. Part 3 of the report presents additional data notes and sources. (KB) |
