New state rating system for schools- AQuESTT

Nebraska is adopting a new rating system for its schools. The system, referred to as AQuESTT, will replace the old system of ranking schools based on their state assessment scores. In the new system schools will be classified as Excellent, Great, Good, or Needs Improvement. The three schools most in need of assistance will be designated priority schools. The school classification will be based on how schools meet each of the six tenets of a Quality Education System. Those tenets are described on the attached page below.
