How North Carolina's elementary schools compare

A: 386B: 408C: 371D: 206F: 25

57% of the 1396 ranked elementary schools in North Carolina earn an A or B (386 A grades, 408 B, 371 C, 206 D, 25 F), against 46% of elementary schools nationwide. 1265 schools meet or beat the proficiency projected from their student context (91% here, 71% nationally), and 894 exceed it. On average 44% of tested students meet the state bar against a projected 38% (national averages: 39% actual, 38% projected).

The biggest overperformers, by actual proficiency above projection: Southeastern Academy (82% against 30%, A+), Metrolina Reg Scholars Academy (98% against 49%, A+), Irwin Academic Center (82% against 39%, A+), Endeavor Charter School (90% against 49%, A+), Tiller School (77% against 37%, A+).

Districts with the most schools in the top quarter (the top 349): Wake County Schools (45), Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools (29), Guilford County Schools (17), Union County Public Schools (14).

Cities with the most ranked elementary schools: Charlotte (104, 39 at A or B), Raleigh (61, 40 at A or B), Greensboro (41, 17 at A or B), Durham (38, 10 at A or B), Fayetteville (35, 7 at A or B).

The largest ranked elementary schools: Pine Springs Preparatory Academy (1,243 students, A+, #79), South Academy Of International Languages (1,223 students, A, #181), Davidson K 8 School (1,171 students, A+, #78).

Of the top 25, 2 are magnet schools and 5 are charters. Selective and specialised schools tend to post high actual scores; the projection column is the fairer comparison for a neighborhood school.
