State Superintendent John White says public school report cards will be released Tuesday and teacher evaluations go public on Wednesday. Low performing  teachers will be labelled  "ineffective" and could be on the chopping block. School performance scores determine if the state should take over the schools.Students at low performing schools are allowed to apply for private school vouchers.

How are teachers graded? Teacher evaluations are split 50-50 between classroom observations and student test scores.

School performance scores are based on student test scores at the elementary level.

Middle school results also include the number of students who advance to high school. High school scores include ACT scores, performance on subject exams and graduation rates.
