Summary:
The city of Bayboro, North Carolina is home to 4 schools serving students from elementary through high school, all part of the Pamlico County Schools district. While the schools face challenges in serving a high-need student population, several standout institutions emerge, including Pamlico County High School and Pamlico County Primary School.
Pamlico County High School stands out for its strong performance on End-of-Course exams, particularly in math and science, and its steady improvement in statewide rankings over the past 3 years. Meanwhile, Pamlico County Primary School excels in 3rd-grade math but faces the challenge of serving a student population where 99.13% of students receive free or reduced-price lunch, the highest rate among the district's schools.
Across the district, the schools demonstrate a diverse student population and generally perform above the state average in several subject areas, particularly in math. However, the high free and reduced lunch rates suggest significant socioeconomic challenges in the Bayboro community, raising questions about equity of educational opportunities and resources. The district may need to focus on improving reading proficiency to address this area of concern.
