Facts & Figures about Durham Public Schools
We believe our schools are so much more than data and numbers - they are about the students, teachers and employees who make great teaching and learning happen every day. But the data we collect does play an important part in our work. Data informs our planning, shows us where we need to improve, and helps us understand what's working and where we could improve. Data is essential in making sound decisions regarding how to best serve our students and their families.
If you have questions about data or test scores, call the Research and Accountability Office at 919-560-9498.
