SARC
School Accountability Report Card
What is a School Accountability Report Card?
The purpose of the 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.
What information does the SARC contain?
The profile usually summarizes the school's mission, goals, and accomplishments. 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
- Teacher and Staff information
- Class sizes
- Curriculum and instruction descriptions
- Postsecondary preparation information
- Fiscal and expenditure data
