4 Stokes schools offer improvement plans
They failed No Child Left Behind standards

Four Stokes County schools have presented improvement plans to the county school board after failing to meet federal requirements in the No Child Left Behind Act for two consecutive years.
The plans call for restructuring each of the schools and meeting the needs of student subgroups that did not make Adequate Yearly Progress, or AYP. Subgroups are based on race, economic status, English proficiency and disabilities.
Principals and teachers from London Elementary School, Walnut Cove Elementary School, Chestnut Grove Middle School and Southeastern Stokes Middle School began presenting revised school plans in January. The board has approved all four plans.
Larry Cartner, Stokes County superintendent, said yesterday that each of the schools started planning for changes last summer.
