North Carolina Science Standards Get a ‘B’

By Anthony | December 7th, 2005 | 11:13 pm

The Thomas B. Fordham Foundation has released a review of state science standards. The good news – or, not-so-bad-news, as the case may be: We get a ‘B’.

On the whole, North Carolina has mounted a good science standards effort that would be better were the process materials less intrusive and more ofthe indispensable chemistry content included. Grade: “B”

The bad news? According to the Executive Summary, our grade has declined since the previous review in 2000.
