Georgia Milestones

Georgia Milestones, the annual state exams administered each year, test students’ mastery of Georgia Performance Standards, which set expectations for what lessons students will learn in each grade. Students in grades 3-8 take Milestones End-of-Grade (EOG) exams in English language arts and math; students in grades 5 and 8 additionally are tested in science and social studies. High school students in specific courses – Algebra, American Literature, Biology and U.S. History (as well as some eighth-graders taking Physical Science and Algebra for high school credit) take Milestones End-of-Course (EOC) exams.

Results measure students’ knowledge as Beginning, Developing, Proficient or Distinguished Learners. We use this data to develop School Improvement Plans and to chart a course for the future that ensures students are learning more in a CCSD classroom than they would anywhere else.
