Summary:
The city of Faison, North Carolina has only one school, Hargrove Elementary, which serves grades PK-5 and is part of the Sampson County Schools district. Hargrove Elementary has a total enrollment of 365 students, with a diverse racial makeup that is predominantly Hispanic (54.52%).
Academically, Hargrove Elementary's math proficiency rates for grades 3-5 are generally higher than the Sampson County Schools district and the state of North Carolina, but its reading proficiency rates are more mixed. The school's 5th grade science proficiency rates are a standout, exceeding both the district and state averages. However, the school's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, despite maintaining a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Hargrove Elementary serves a high-need student population, with 99.18% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. While the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.9 could be an advantage, the economic challenges faced by its students may require additional resources and support to help improve academic outcomes. Overall, Hargrove Elementary has some strengths, particularly in science and math, but also areas for improvement, especially in reading proficiency and addressing the needs of its economically disadvantaged student population.
