Rose High, North Pitt High, Farmville Central High, and Ayden-Grifton High, struggle with lower proficiency rates, particularly in math. These schools also have exceptionally high rates of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a need for additional resources and support to address the challenges faced by economically disadvantaged students.
