RALEIGH, N.C. — North Carolina public schools released their annual school performance grades and graduation rates at Wednesday's State Board of Education meeting. Search below to see how your school performed during the 2017-18 school year.

North Carolina's graduation rate stands at 86.3 percent. That's down slightly from 86.5 percent the previous school year, marking the first time in more than 10 years that the rate has dropped. But DPI officials say slight changes in how the rate is calculated mean the numbers are no longer comparable.

In 2005-06, the state's graduation rate was 68.3 percent.

All North Carolina public schools, including charter schools, have received A through F letter grades since 2013-14, when the General Assembly passed legislation requiring it. Schools are also judged on whether their students exceeded, met or did not meet academic growth expectations during the year.

To comply with new federal requirements, the state tweaked its formula for performance grades in 2018, making it difficult to compare scores for the most recent school year to previous years.
