Warren County Schools accreditation downgraded after SOL scores
Two Warren County schools faced lower accreditation ranks after SOL results. Ressie Jeffries Elementary School lost accreditation after four years of partial status. Skyline High School remains partially accredited yet near the benchmark. Reading and science scores fell short for Ressie Jeffries and Skyline missed reading. Plans to regain full accreditation were state approved, while four straight years of failure would automatically deny accreditation.
