Proficient Learners: Student have a proficiency in the knowledge and skills necessary at this grade level/course of learning. The students are prepared for the next grade level or course and are on track for college and career readiness.
Distinguished Learners: Students show an advanced proficiency in the knowledge and skills necessary at the grade level/course of learning. The students are well prepared for the next grade level or course and are well prepared for college and career readiness.

WALB has complied an interactive collection of graphics for test results for the end-of-course tests of schools in the viewing area.
