Comparison Results• Generally, WCSS results are consistent with other

large counties and state average. • Some standards are large county strengths and

some are greater challenges for large counties. • Large counties do have significant influence on

the state average. However, in some cases results are consistent with other large counties but not the state average.

• Example- Lead Teacher Education high performing standard.

Comparison Results (cont.)• Lead Teacher Education is a relative strength in

comparison to the state as well as other large counties and has consistently achieved at a higher level for the minimum standard (5 pts).

• Wake County started off at a higher percentage than other counties (in FY06/07) and has continued to increase over the past 4 years.

• Teacher education may be a strength because Wake county has a more highly education population than other counties.

Additional InformationNCPC re-examining PBIS:• May adjust standard target percentages since so

many counties have exceeded them. • Have discontinued the existing family support

(parent education and literacy) indicators.• Examining all areas to determine if other

measures may be more appropriate.
