McAdenville’s new town hall nearly ready By Alan Hodge alan.bannernews@gmail.com

The Town of McAdenville will soon be getting a new town hall. The hall will be housed in the former McAdenville United Methodist Church building right in the heart of the downtown area. The church building was constructed in 1961 and the town paid the Methodist Conference $205,000 for it back in June, 2017. The current town hall is a rented storefront space of about 1,500 sq. ft. The new hall will boast 4,500 sq. ft. Moving town government into a former church meant a lot of renovations needed to be done. The town set a budget of $477,000 for the work which began in May 2018. McAdenville mayor Jim Robinette says everything should be ready for town business by October. “The new place will be a great thing for the town,” Robinette said. “It will give us room for future growth.” Town clerk Lesley Dellinger has made do with the current, cramped, town hall for a long time and is looking forward to moving into the new, spacious building. See TOWN HALL page 2

Mt. Holly police chief returns to work following illness Mt. Holly police chief Don Roper returned to work last week after suffering a massive stroke on August 13. Prior to the emergency, Chief Roper, 52, had not missed a day of work in 31 years. “It is with sincere gratitude that I offer my thanks to everyone in the community who shared their prayers and support during my recent hospital stay,” Roper said. “The outpouring of support has been a great comfort to my family, and it has been a very humbling experience for me. I cannot express in words just how grateful I am to serve in a caring community such as ours. I feel truly blessed to have the opportunity to return to work this week. Thank you again for all your concern and kindness.” Roper was the picture of health before the stroke, however, he also had an irregular heartbeat he wasn’t aware of. The condition, known as atrial fibrillation, AFIB, manifested itself after Roper and his staff had a meeting and he began to feel a bit “off”. Quick action by staff members saw Roper rushed to Carolinas Medical Center and Atrium Health. Roper was unable to speak or move the right side of his body upon arrival. See CHIEF page 3

Work has begun on the Town of Cramerton’s new greenway. Last week saw workers clearing trees and brush from the greenway’s connection near the Greenwood Place parking area for Goat Island Park. The greenway will eventually run alongside the South Fork River towards

Wilkinson Blvd. and terminate at the Village at South Fork apartment complex. The Town of Cramerton, along with the NCDOT, awarded a contract to Eagle Wood Inc. for the project. Workers at the Greenwood Place site have also constructed a temporary fence enclosure where machinSee GREENWAY page 4

TOWN HALL from page 1

“I am very pleased,” she said. “I am especially glad that the contractor has incorporated the historical features of the building in the project. It gives it lots of character.” Bower Traust is the main contractor. A tour of the new hall begins at the front door where a plaque describing the history of the church building will be placed. Inside, a nice foyer will greet customers. Town employees will be behind an ADA compliant counter where folks can do things like pay water bills. Dellinger will have her own office just down the hall. The church's hardwood floors have been refinished to a high standard. Much of the church lighting has been retained. This not only saved money,

but also adds architectural interest. The former sanctuary has received a major overhaul. The pulpit area has been converted into a dais where Robinette and other city officials will sit during meetings. A new Audio/Visual/WiFi system has been installed. A drop down AV screen has been installed for presentations and PowerPoints. Church pews are retained with a seating capacity of over sixty persons. Four of the pews have been shortened to allow wheelchair access. In fact, the whole building is ADA compliant. The stained glass window behind the dais has been retained. The church's other stained glass is currently stored downstairs.

Speaking of downstairs, the area that was formerly the pastor's office and Sunday School classrooms will be used as a break room, more storage, and as a place town officials can hold closed session meetings- a big improvement over the previous situation. “In the old town hall we had to make everyone leave so we could have closed session,” said Robinette. The exact date when the transfer of Town of McAdenville officials, records, computer, etc. will be moved into the new hall has not been pinpointed quite yet, but won't Robinette in the former sanctuary that will serve as council chambers. be long.

“Their quick action saved my life,” said Roper. Roper took over as Mt. Holly’s police chief in May 2013. Mt. Holly city manager Danny Jackson shared his thoughts on the chief’s return. “It’s great to have Chief Roper back at work, which is truly a blessing given his ordeal,” said Jackson. “It just goes to show that the power of prayer works. It’s also great that we have people that are willing to take action on beChief Roper (right) with his command staff sharing a laugh upon his return to work following a half of another person when stroke on August 13.

Page 3 that were involved with Chief Roper’s treatment and recovery.” Roper has a master’s degree in public administration from Appalachian University. He also graduated from the 246th session of the National FBI Academy. Roper came to Mount Holly with 26 years of experience under his belt. He worked with the Gastonia Police Department as a captain of the west district. In that role, he oversaw more than

40 officers. In his time at the Gastonia Police Department he worked in investigations, the narcotics divisions and eventually made captain of the tactical team and west district. One of Roper’s proudest moments was when the Democratic National Convention came to Charlotte. Roper was made commander of a platoon of 70 officers from Gaston County who went to the convention to help.

already robust trail and pedestrian system will provide a new element in connecting the growing apartment, single family, and business developments on the north side of Wilkinson Blvd. all the way to Goat Island and the Downtown Centennial Center. Furthermore, completion of this link will be one step closer to connecting the Downtowns of Cramerton and McAdenville via bike and pedestrian greenway.”

Meditations What’s the hurry?

Mel at the Belmont School of Ballet.

House of Mercy photos

Mel seen in his old House of Mercy room.

Mel Tomlinson visits Belmont School of Ballet for House of Mercy video On Thursday, August 30th. Mel Tomlinson visited the Belmont School of Ballet for the taping of a new House of Mercy video. House of Mercy, a nonprofit founded by the Sister of Mercy, has been in existence for 27 years and is located in Belmont. The organization’s mission is to provide care in a residential setting for persons living with AIDS who can no longer care for themselves and face homelessness. Mel is one of three people featured in this new video. He is one of House of Mercy’s most famous past residents. Before coming to House of Mercy in 1998, Mel was a highly renowned ballet dancer, reaching the ranks of soloist in the New York City Ballet. After being diagnosed with HIV in the 1990s, he became deathly ill and entered the House of Mercy under the care of the Director of Nursing, Shirley Stowe. Mel was expected to die within six months after being admitted. However, he made a miraculous recovery and was eventually released from the house in 2000. Mel has a special place in his heart for the

House of Mercy and his caretakers, especially Shirley. That is why he did not hesitate to agree to be in the new video House of Mercy is producing to highlight its mission and programing. In the video, Mel visits the residence where he lived for two years. He reminisces about some of his darkest days there, and how the care and support of the staff and the Sisters of Mercy gave him the hope and strength to recover. The production crew then moved filming locations to the Belmont School of Ballet where Mel has taught classes in the past. While there, Mel showed us his gift for instruction, as he led a group of aspiring dancers through some warmups and routines. The young girls in the class were inspired by the famous ballet dancer, who not only stresses good form, but the importance of a good attitude and self esteem. The House of Mercy video is expected to debut in December. It will be available on the House of Mercy website (www.thehouseofmercy.org), and on the House of Mercy Facebook page.

Criss, Cross Mangosauce On September 15 at 11:00 a.m. the Gaston County Public Library will kick off National Hispanic Heritage Month with Criss Cross Mangosauce. It is an edutainment venture designed to foster children’s love for

languages, cultures and performing arts. These Latina moms, Irania Patterson and Ana Lucia Divins, share with others their Hispanic heritage and Spanish language in a bilingual, fun and educational way. This is a free, public

program for school age children and adults. This event is made possible by the generosity of the Friends of the Gaston County Public Library.

One day I was driving on a road where the speed limit was 35 mph. Yes, I was driving the posted speed limit instead of my usual speeding. I looked in my rear view mirror to see a man riding my bumper and waving with his hands. I could tell he was angry with my driving. Finally, he sped around me and took the corner so fast he almost ran off the road. Why are we in such a hurry? We live in panic, hurry, or worry mode. We cram so much into one day that at the end of the day we exclaim, “Where has the day gone?” Time does not change. We still have twenty-four hours in the day. We don’t observe those hours due to lack of prioritizing which lead us to panic, hurry, and worry. I used to live in such a state. I am not entirely healed from panic, hurry, and worry, but I am learning to live in proper balance. I have a friend who has used this phrase, “Ruthlessly eliminate hurry.” She inspired me to give this a try. I try to set a certain pace throughout my day. I allow breath space between meetings. These are mini breaks between appointments. Proper breathing helps to restore health and balance. Likewise, allowing breath space between meetings to reflect and prepare helps provide balance in your day. Breath space enables me to be productive and not just responding to the next thing in the day. When I am meeting with someone who is hurried and

worried, I sit quietly. Then I tell the person, “I will not allow you to pull me into your anxiety, but I will invite you into my quiet rest.” They usually stare at me as if I have three heads. We don’t know how to enter that quiet rest. When Jesus came to the home of Mary and Martha, Martha was in a state of panic, hurry, and worry. Martha was distracted with all her preparations. Jesus told her, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered about so many things.” Luke 10:41 NASB. Martha tried to pull Jesus into her worry, but Jesus was more concerned about inviting Martha to enter into his peace. When we live in panic, hurry, and worry we live distracted. As a result, we don’t listen well nor perform well. Jesus was not speaking against activity; he was talking about the importance of priority. There are times our rushing and absence of priority takes us away from spending time with God, family, and friends. There are times our panic, hurry and worry can lead us astray by the vicissitudes of life. So, like my friend and now me, I invite you to eliminate hurry ruthlessly. While you are out driving observe the lilies of the field. They do not toil, but they are clothed beautifully. Look at the birds who are not worried about reaping and gathering, God provides for them. How much more will he take care of each of us? “Do not worry then, saying, ‘What will we eat?’ or ‘What will we drink?’ or ‘What will we wear

Celebrating Gaston County’s oldest home The Hoyle Historic Homestead is Gaston County’s oldest home. It dates back to circa late 1700’s and is located at 1214 Dallas-Stanley Highway about halfway between the two towns. Saturday saw the home open its doors to hundreds of visitors for the 27th year. A non-profit educational organization, The Hoyle Historic Homestead, Inc. seeks to restore and protect this home of Peter Hoyle, sometimes spelled Heil, Heyl or Hoyl in old documents. Hoyle was part of the 18th Century settling of the North Carolina Piedmont by German and Scot-Irish immigrants traveling the Great Philadelphia Wagon Road south through the Shenandoah Valley then into the Carolinas. The home is important not only for its antiquity, but also for its construction. The house and outbuildings are on the site where Peiter Heyl was granted a land grant in 1754. The main house was built during the late 1700’s. It features rare corner post construction and is the only known remaining structure in North Carolina with this type of construction. This was also the site of Hoylesville, the first Federal Post Office in present day Gaston County. The site was purchased by Hoyle Historic Homestead Inc., in 1991 to preserve and restore this very important part of regional history. In 1993 it was placed on the National Historical Register. Pieter Heyl, a miller from Adenbach, Germany, his wife, Catharine, and their children arrived in America on September 11, 1738

on the Robert and Alice, originally settling in northeast Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. The Heyl family, later Anglicized to Hoyle, then lived for some time in Frederick, Maryland, but by 1753 had moved to what is now Gaston County, North Carolina, then part of Anson County. Peter Hoyle died prior to January 20, 1761. The exact date of construction of the house is not known, but various sources date it anywhere from 1750 to 1758. After Peter's and his eldest son Jacob's deaths, which occurred within a year of each other, the land was inherited by Jacob's minor son Martin, who then transferred his interest to his uncle John. In 1794 the property went to Peter Hoyle's other grandson, Andrew, who became a farmer and entrepreneur. "Rich Andrew", as he was known, may have acquired the property with the house already standing and then improved the dwelling, or he may have built the house and later upgraded it with new finishes in the early years of the 19th century. The Hoyle House stands on a hill overlooking the South Fork of the Catawba River. The house faces south toward a now overgrown dirt road; the Dallas-Stanley Highway on the north side now provides access to the property. The earliest section has a foundation of small stones, still partly visible. The house's German-American hallmarks include its heavy timber frame construction with vertical braces at the corners with tightly fitted horizontal log infillings. The apparently original and complete roof structure is now covered with early

20th century tin, and much of the unusual original beaded siding, applied circa 1810 with cut nails, survives covered by weatherboard. Weathering beneath the beaded siding reveals the exterior was originally unsheathed. Some of the early windows remain, set in molded surrounds with molded sills that appear to date to 1810. The windows originally were small (about two-and-a-half feet square) and possibly filled only with shutters in the earliest period. The first floor of the main block is a fourroom plan of two larger rooms on the east side, with corner fireplaces sharing a single chimney, and two smaller west rooms. Each pair of rooms is of equal width, but the front rooms are slightly deeper. A later, second north-south partition, no longer in place, once created a center-hall plan. Today all rooms connect with adjacent rooms. The original staircase, in the southeast corner of the larger front room, enclosed with one set of winders and at least one stop outside the enclosure, was removed in the late 1960s. The first floor interior is carefully finished. Much of the modern sheetrock and painting have been removed to reveal early board ceilings and walnut paneled partitions and paneling on the outer walls. While some or all of the interior sheathing appears to date after 1810, all of the trim and some of the ceiling probably date to the first remodeling. The three room plan of the second floor consists of a large east room that comprises about two thirds of the space along with two

small west rooms. The north-south paneled partition is similar to the partition of the first floor. This basic three room plan probably is original, although the partition has been moved at least twice. Notches on the baseboard and patching of the wall plasters and chair rail indicate the wall was moved east, into the larger space, by about three feet. All outer walls were exposed logs until they were plastered, probably early in the 19th century. A door in the northeast corner of the large east room leads to an enclosed attic staircase; in the stairwell the structural system is clearly evident because the corner post, down braces and log filling have never been sheathed. The two remaining outbuildings date from the early- to mid-19th century. Near the northeast corner of the main house, the well house is a one-story, rectangular common bond brick building with ventilation holes on the ends. A gabled tin roof extends beyond the west end and acts as a porch sheltering the well. The well house stands at the southeast corner, and east of the well house stands a weatherboarded smokehouse with a gabled roof sheathed in sheet metal. The Hoyle House is an important and, in some respects, apparently unique landmark of traditional German-American architecture in North Carolina. The unusually large, for its time, and substantial dwelling exemplifies a construction method— heavy timber frame with log infill— seen elsewhere in the midAtlantic Germanic settlement areas but not previously identified in North Carolina.

Clover comes back to beat South Point 30-21 By John Wilson john.bannernews@gmail.com

The Clover Blue Eagles football squad laid it all out with a risky call that turned out to be a game changer in a come from behind 30-21 win over South Point. The Red Raiders were looking pretty good in the first half of this North Carolina-South Carolina matchup with the Blue Eagles. South Point’s starting quarterback Keaton Hale was back in the lineup and moving the Redbone offense along. Both teams had matching scores in the first quarter. Clover scored first, but South Point quickly responded when Hale took the ball 23 yards for a score. In the second quarter Clover scored again, but South Point answered with two touchdowns. The first TD was a 25-yard run by Hale. The second was a 53-yard Hale to Ray Grier bomb. South Point went into the locker room with a 21-14 lead. Things got turned upside down when the second half got underway. The Blue Eagles started the third quarter with a successful onside kick. After recovering the kick, Clover went on to scored a touchdown one play later. After a successful PAT kick the game was all tied up 2121. The Red Raiders still had a chance to get back in it, but that kick and subsequent touchdown was like a gut punch that they never recovered from. In the second half things just fell apart for the Red Raiders As the game went on all

could see that the pace had shifted and Clover was in control. The Blue Eagles went on to score another third quarter TD and a field goal in the fourth. The same South Point offense that scored 21 first half points was shut down in the second half. The Red Raiders just couldn’t get back on the scoreboard. Offensively both teams were not that far off. Clover had 411 yards of total offense to South Point’s 341. The Red Raiders did most of their damage on the ground with 190 yards compared to Clover’s 140 yards. The big difference came in the air. While South Point had a respectable 151 yards in passing offense the Blue Eagles dwarfed that number with 271 yards of their own. Red Raider head coach Adam Hodge didn’t candy coat the loss. “We have got to block and tackle better,” Hodge noted. In his first game back since going down with a knee injury on opening day South Point quarterback Keaton Hale fared well. Hale had 122 passing yards and 88 yards on the ground. He ran for two TD’s and threw for another. Also putting in some nice work for South Point was fullback Naseem Jones. The junior runner had 74 yards off 29 carries. “I thought Naseem ran hard,” Hodge said. “And it’s good to have Keaton back.” South Point’s top receiver was Ray Grier who had three receptions for 98 yards and a TD. See RAIDERS, page 13

Depend on God By Lisa Harper Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy way acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Proverbs 3:6-5 (KJV) We depend on many things. This thought came to me just the other day when I was arriving home from errands. As always, my faithful dog and friend Dixie, was awaiting my arrival. It reminded me of her dependence on me every single day to take care of her. To comfort her, and to always be there for her, in whatever time of need she may have. She is always sad when I leave the house to go anywhere, yet is assured that I will be walking back through the front door in a few hours to greet her and show her how much I missed her too. God is like that always. He does not want us to be independent of anything; He wants us to depend on Him in our daily lives. In times of trouble, despair, hopelessness, and all the insecurities of life that get thrown our way, we should trust in no one but Him. But we know all too well, especially in today’s society of where morals and values seemingly no longer exist, that the dependence many choose is in the wrong forms. They are seeking an escape from reality. Plain and simple, they need Christ in their hearts.

Most recently, it came to mind that we are seeing duplication in so many lives of loved ones. (Including turmoil among family members) Their choices and decisions come back to haunt them when they are older. What the next generation is surrounded in can mold them or break them. I pray for all those who are lost in confusion, and sadly keep the generational curse alive and well. It affects everyone around them, and the consequences become reality. We must trust God with our Past (He has hidden it) we must trust God with our Present (He will never forsake us) we must trust God with our future (He knows what we need before we know) He is our Savior, Shelter, Supply, and Source. Any other resource that you fall into is the wrong one. Please remember that. So the next time I look into my sweet dog’s eyes, it will remind me once again, that there is someone who watches over me and cares for me, and loves me unconditionally. They paid the price for my salvation with their blood. Thank you Jesus… Your light upon my world is everlasting. Let us pray for each other simply this day, that we encourage one another to follow the call of the Lord.

Gaston College students benefit from tutoring program The Gaston College Learning Center, located in the Dalpiaz Student Success Center on the College’s Dallas campus, offers a quiet place for students to study, collaborate on projects, and work with a dedicated group of tutors who are there to provide assistance in subjects across the College’s program offerings. The tutoring program is free to students. Students may be referred to the program by their instructors, or they can visit the Learning Center to inquire about the assistance available. If they want to participate in the program, an instructor referral will be required. Students can work

with tutors for up to three hours a week per subject. The tutors may be fellow students, Gaston College staff members, or alumni who return to campus to be of service. The Gaston College tutoring program is led by John Erickson, the Director of the Learning, Persistence, and Completion Center. It began in 1998 as a resource for students in the developmental education program. At that time, the tutoring staff consisted of five “Peer Tutors” who were Gaston College students. “I recognized the need for tutoring help for stu-

Teachers, administrators, and other school staff members from the Dallas area schools were treated to a back-to-school breakfast on August 24, thanks to the generosity of Rankin Lake Baptist Church. Now in its 14th year, the breakfast is held the Friday before school starts and serves as the church’s “thank you” to teachers and other school employees for their hard work and commitment to ensuring the success of students. Here are some pictures from this year’s breakfast, which offered plenty of good food, fellowship, and fun to welcome a new school year. Gaston Schools photo

dents in other programs and began to grow the program,” said Erickson, “at first by hiring recent Gaston College graduates as tutors. Currently 20 to 30 tutors are employed each semester to provide assistance for subjects from every Gaston College academic program. Math, chemistry, biology, accounting, and computer skills are the most in-demand subjects.” Tutors, who work an average of 12 to 15 hours a week, must have attained at least a 3.0 GPA and must undergo training before working with students. The Gaston College Writing Center, under the umbrella of the Learning Center, provides coaches to help with all types of writing assignments. All of the Writing Center coaches have Bachelor’s or Master’s degrees. Approximately 150 students use the tutoring program each semester.

Gaston sees increase in student proficiency and academic growth More schools in Gaston County are meeting or exceeding academic growth expectations on the state testing and accountability program, according to information released today by the North Carolina State Board of Education. Overall student proficiency for Gaston County increased slightly for the 2017-2018 academic year while the graduation rate for the Class of 2018 dipped to 85.6 percent after a recordhigh rate in 2017. Overall Student Proficiency The district’s overall student proficiency rate increased slightly when compared to the previous year. For the 2017-2018 school year, 56.0 percent of students scored a Level III, IV, or V on the state tests. Students who achieve a Level III, IV, or V score are performing at or above grade level expectations. The student proficiency rate for the 2016-2017 school year was 55.0. Since the state implemented new testing standards in 2013-2014, Gaston’s proficiency rate has gone up almost six points, increasing from 50.2 to 56.0. Collectively, the most significant gains in student proficiency occurred at the elementary school level with 18 schools seeing an increase when compared to last year. Three elementary schools achieved double-digit gains: Pleasant Ridge +13.0, Catawba Heights +10.9, and Carr +10.7. Other elementary schools with significant gains include Hawks Nest +9.7, W.B. Beam Intermediate +6.8, Chapel Grove +6.5, and North Belmont +6.3. At the middle school level, York Chester (+10.0) and Southwest (+5.1) had the most significant gains in overall student proficiency. Ashbrook (+4.7) and South Point (+4.6) had the highest gains in student proficiency among the high schools. Students in grades 3-8 take end-of-grade tests in reading and math, and fifth and eighth graders also take an end-of-grade science test. High school students take end-of-course tests in Math I, Biology, and English II. The district had its most significant subject area improvements in eighth grade math (+7.0) and fifth grade math (+4.7). Academic Growth For the 2017-2018 school year, Gaston County had 87.8 percent of its schools (43 of 49) to meet or exceed academic growth expectations. The previous year, 41 of 49 schools met or exceeded growth expectations. Academic growth indicates whether students achieve a year’s worth of academic progress for a year’s worth of instruction. Growth is reported in one of three ways: Exceeded Growth, Met Growth, or Did Not Meet Growth.

School Performance Grades The state uses the testing and accountability data to determine the School Performance Grades, which were assigned for the first time in 2014. A school’s performance letter grade is determined using a formula based only on two factors: student achievement (80 percent) and student academic growth (20 percent). For the 2017-2018 school year, Gaston County had two schools to earn an A grade, 13 schools to earn a B grade, and 28 schools to earn a C grade. The School Performance Grade should not be interpreted as a comprehensive evaluation that determines the quality of a school. It is intended to make it easier for the public to understand how a school is performing. However, only select criteria are used to determine the grade. Factors such as school size, diverse student population, socioeconomics, teacher experience, student learning obstacles, special programs, and parental and community involvement have an effect on a school’s performance, but are not considered in the grade. Graduation Rate After experiencing a record-high graduation rate of 88.3 percent in 2017, the graduation rate for the Class of 2018 dipped to 85.6 percent. Despite the decrease, six high schools – Ashbrook, Cherryville, Stuart W. Cramer, Forestview, Gaston Early College, and Highland – achieved a graduation rate that exceeds 90 percent. Called the four-year cohort graduation rate, it reflects the percentage of students who entered the ninth grade in 2014-2015 and graduated four years later in June 2018. When the state first calculated the four-year cohort graduation rate in 2005-2006, Gaston County’s rate was a mere 68.1 percent. This year, the state changed how it calculates the graduation rate, which resulted in lower rates for schools. Previously, the rate was based primarily on the initial number of ninth grade students who created the cohort. Students who enrolled in a school, but were not part of the school’s initial cohort, were included in the calculation only if they were on schedule to graduate in four years. Now, all students, regardless of circumstances, are included in a school’s cohort. It is important to note that the four-year graduation rate is not the same as the dropout rate, which indicates the number of students who drop out of high school in a given year. Some students need an extra year of high school to complete graduation requirements. The district’s fiveyear cohort graduation rate is 89.3 percent, which is a

bit higher than last year’s five-year rate of 89.2. The five-year cohort graduation rate reflects the number of students who entered the ninth grade in 2013-2014 and graduated by June 2018. “We are encouraged to have some gains in overall academic achievement, and we congratulate the schools that saw improvements in student proficiency and academic growth,� stated Superintendent of Schools W. Jeffrey Booker. “Obviously, we want more substantial increases in student achievement, and we want to see the district’s overall graduation rate exceed 90 percent – ideally, we want a 100 percent graduation rate. I am confident that our schools will work diligently to build on their successes from last year and achieve at an even higher rate this year.� Booker added, “The testing and accountability data will be used to determine our strengths and areas for improvement, and we will work with our schools to ensure that students continue to grow, achieve, and thrive. Our administrators, teachers, student support personnel, and many others are committed to doing all that we can to help students excel in the classroom and provide them with a school environment that is safe, nurturing, and conducive for quality teaching and learning.� Below are highlights from the 2017-2018 state test results: Under the state testing and accountability program, students in grades 3-8 are tested in reading and math. Fifth and eighth grade students also are tested in science. High school students take state tests in three subject areas: Math I, Biology, and English II. Overall student proficiency on the state end-ofgrade and end-of-course tests increased to 56.0 percent. When the state implemented new testing standards in 2013-2014, the district’s proficiency rate was 50.2 percent. Proficiency is determined by the number of students scoring a Level III, IV, or V (performing at or above grade level) on the state tests. This year (2017-2018), Gaston County Schools had 23 schools to exceed academic growth expectations. In 2016-2017, 22 schools exceeded growth. In 20152016, 20 schools exceeded growth, and 18 schools exceeded growth in 2014-2015. Among the elementary schools (grades 3-5), Hawks Nest, Belmont Central, W.A. Bess, New Hope, Pinewood, Carr, Catawba Heights, Robinson, and Cherryville had the highest proficiency rates. The elementary schools with the most significant increases in proficiency compared to last year were Pleasant Ridge (+13.0), Catawba Heights (+10.9), Carr

(+10.7), and Hawks Nest (+9.7). Cramerton, Belmont, Gaston County Virtual Academy, and Holbrook had the highest proficiency for middle schools (grades 6-8). York Chester (+10.0) and Southwest (+5.1) had the most significant increases among middle schools. Highland School of Technology and Gaston Early College had the highest proficiency among the high

schools (grades 9-12). Highland with 99.8 percent and Gaston Early College with 97.9 percent are among the top scores in the state for student proficiency. The high schools with the most significant increases in proficiency were Ashbrook (+4.7) and South Point (+4.6). Gaston Early College and Highland received an A school performance grade. The district has 13 schools

that received a B grade: Ashbrook, Belmont Central, Belmont Middle, W.A. Bess, Carr, Cherryville High, Stuart W. Cramer, Cramerton, Forestview, Hawks Nest, New Hope, Page Primary, and South Point. The test scores released are preliminary results. The results will be verified by the state and official results will be a part of the district and school report cards, which will be issued this fall.
