Understanding EOC/EOG Testing
Your child will receive a score report within 30 calendar dates after the administration of each required state assessment. Here is some other commonly asked questions about assessments.
What are End-of-Grade (EOG) and End-of-Course (EOC) tests?
The tests assess student proficiency in key subjects. All students in North Carolina take End-of-Grade reading and math tests every year in grades 3-8. Fifth and eighth graders also take an End-of-Grade science test. High school students are required to complete an End-of-Course assessment in English 2, Math 1, Math 3 and Biology.

What does my child's score mean?
The End-of-Grade (EOG) and End-of-Course (EOC) is just one data point to indicate how your child is performing in school. The EOG and EOC allows you to compare an individual student's performance to other students in the district and state.
Will my child be retained if they fail their EOG/EOC tests?
As previously stated, the EOG/EOC is just one indicator of a student's proficiency and is not the sole factor in retention. You can contact your child's school to understand more about promotion and retention procedures.
