Floyd County Schools Press Release –Â
Ten Floyd County schools beat the odds in 2019, performing better than statistically expected on the College and Career Ready Performance Index (CCRPI).
The CCRPI is Georgiaâs statewide accountability system. It measures schools and school districts on a 100-point scale based on multiple indicators of performance. Beating the Odds (BTO) is a statistical analysis that compares a schoolâs actual performance on the CCRPI with the performance of schools with similar characteristics across the state. Characteristics include the schoolâs size, grade cluster, student mobility, and student demographics including race/ethnicity, disability, English learners, and poverty. Schools that perform higher than similar schools are considered âBeating the Odds.â It is important to note that schools that âBeat the Oddsâ may still have low CCRPI scores and/or gaps in performance.

Being a âGovernorâs Office of Student Achievement Beating the Odds Schoolâ is a great accomplishment,â said Floyd County Schools Superintendent Dr. Jeff Wilson. âOur staff is working hard to continue to improve student growth and student achievement in each of our schools.
