Best Public Schools in Rowland, NC


Summary:

The city of Rowland, North Carolina is home to 3 schools - 2 elementary schools and 1 middle school, all part of the Public Schools of Robeson County district. While the schools serve diverse student populations, they face significant challenges, with stark differences in academic performance and high levels of student poverty across the district.
