March, 2014
Recently, our school district recalibrated the overall 2014 CCRPI scores for all schools within the DeKalb County School System. With the new calculations, Fernbank Elementary now has the highest overall CCRPI score (95.6) for elementary schools in the district. This recognition could not have occurred without the support and commitment of our teaching and non-teaching staff, and incredible parental support.
