Annotation: 

Under North Carolina's ABCs of Public Education reform plan, the Department of Public Instruction monitored students’s test results at each school in the state.  Where students performed well, teachers got bonuses.  At the fifteen worst-performing schools, principals were suspended and state assistance teams brought in to manage the schools for a year.  Rex Rennent Elementary School was one of the fifteen.  Although relations between the the team members and school's staff were tense, student test scores improved.
