Very well, actually.

In total, the district received six A’s; two B’s; and a C.

This year, the state changed the way it measures and rates the performance of schools and districts.

The 2012-2013 school and district Report Cards will grade schools and districts on a mix of new and previously used components with an A-F letter-grade —rather than the old “Excellent with Distinction,” “Effective” and so on.

While the district did well overall, the new accountability system does point out areas that Brecksville-Broadview Heights School District needs to improve.
