NC Check-Ins are built from statewide field-tested items and the data are derived from a representative sample of students from across the state.
Please note that comparing results to state-level results is not particularly meaningful. Different schools and classes may be at different places in covering the content based on testing windows and calendars. The purpose of the NC Check-Ins is to provide individual and classroom level formative feedback. Comparisons to other classrooms, schools, or local education agencies (LEAs) is neither encouraged nor advised. The North Carolina Department of Public Instruction is providing the state-level report for general information purposes only. It would be a misinterpretation for an LEA to conclude that their students performed better or worse than another LEA or the state. The value in the NC Check-In results is for teachers to determine if their students have learned the content standards that were covered in their classrooms prior to the assessments.

Accessing NC Check-Ins and NC Check-Ins 2.0 Reports
Teacher-level reports are available to help teachers individualize support and instruction for student learning throughout the year. Reports for both NC Check-Ins and NC Check-Ins 2.0 are accessible in the NC Education online reporting system. Teachers are linked to these reports through PowerSchool enrollments. Additionally, NC Check-Ins reports are available from the district testing coordinator or regional computing consultant (for charter and lab schools) in a paper format, whereas NC Check-Ins 2.0 reports are available only through the online reporting system.
To access reports through the online reporting system, the teacher’s email address in PowerSchool must match the teacher’s email address on the NC Education account. The teacher must have students in the appropriate course code in PowerSchool. Teachers listed as “teacher 2” for coteaching classes will not have access to the reports.
