The school is part of the Duplin County Schools district, which is ranked 207 out of 242 districts in North Carolina and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Chinquapin Elementary does not appear to be a standout school in the region, with its statewide ranking fluctuating between 566 and 816 out of 1,502-1,514 elementary schools in North Carolina over the past three school years, and it is currently rated 2 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger. The school's test scores are generally below the state and district averages in both mathematics and reading, and it has a very high percentage of students (99.25%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
Despite the school's higher-than-average spending per student of $14,420 for the 2018-2019 school year, its academic performance remains below state and district levels, suggesting the need for targeted interventions and support to improve educational outcomes. The school's declining test scores and below-average performance compared to its peers, combined with the high poverty levels of its student population, highlight the challenges faced by Chinquapin Elementary in providing a quality education to its community.
