SCHOOL ACCOUNTABILITY REPORT CARD (SARC)

The purpose of the School Accountability Report Card is to
provide parents and the community with important information
about each public school. A SARC can be an effective way for a
school to report on its progress in achieving goals. The public
may also use a SARC to evaluate and compare schools on a
variety of indicators.

State law requires that the SARC contain all of the following:

  • Demographic data
  • School safety and climate for learning information
  • Academic data
  • School completion rates
  • Class sizes
  • Teacher and staff information
  • Curriculum and instruction descriptions
  • Postsecondary preparation information
  • Fiscal and expenditure date

How often must a SARC be updated?

School report cards must be updated annually and published by February.
