Hoke County High School Cites Academic Progress
For years, Hoke County High School battled poor grades, a lack of certified teachers and not enough funding. But school officials said significant changes are under way, and staff members said they are already seeing results.
Posted — UpdatedThe percentage of students who scored at or above grade level on the state's End of Course exams tripled in biology and doubled in both history and economics.
School officials said Disadvantaged Student Supplemental Funding has helped them make some gains this year. Last year, Hoke County's share was $1.7 million, and the system used most of the money to hire 25 new teachers to reduce class size, officials said.
