Inman Middle School Named to State's List of High-Performing Schools

The Council of Intown Neighborhoods and Schools (CINS) congratulates Inman Middle School for being named to the Georgia Department of Education's list of Highest-Performing Schools. Inman Middle School was only one of four middle schools statewide who earned this distinction and only one of two Atlanta Public Schools named to this list.

"These schools are shining examples of what we can achieve in public education in Georgia," State School Superintendent John Barge said in a statement. "I want to take what's working in our Reward Schools and replicate that in every school in the state. These are the schools making education work for all Georgians.

"In February, the state of Georgia received a federal waiver from complying with the accountability measures under the No Child Left Behind Act (NCLB). The state of Georgia developed a new accountability system which categorizes schools as Reward Schools (Highest Performing (test scores and graduation rates fall in the top 5% among Title I schools for three consecutive years) and High Progress (academic gains must fall in the top 10% of Title I schools for three consecutive years), Focus Schools (category includes achievement and graduation rate gaps between groups of students), Priority Schools (lowest performing 5% of Title I schools in the state) and Alert Schools (non-Title I schools that have lower than average graduation rates, lower performances by groups of students and lower performance in particular subjects).

Please make share Inman Middle's accomplishment with your communities and make sure that you take time to thank the exceptional Inmanteachers, faculty and staff for their many consecutive years of hard work and efforts in raising the educational bar of excellence for the middle school students in our cluster. Way to go Inman Eagles!!
