What is our School’s Designation Status and What Does it Mean?
In 2011-2012, the Georgia Department of Education applied for a waiver seeking relief from the federal No Child Left Behind Act. As a result, the United States Department of Education agreed to use a new system, the College & Career Ready Performance Index (CCRPI), to report the progress of Georgia's public schools. In January 2013 the Georgia Department of Education released the final list of indicators on which schools will receive a CCRPI score.
JPES’s 2013 College and Career Ready Performance Index (CCRPI) Score is 78.8
Under the ESEA waiver, Jefferson Parkway Elementary is not designated as a Title I focus, priority, or alert school.
JPES is not currently under any federal orState requirements to offer a FlexibleLearning Program or other tutoring sessions
