Dillard Academy


Summary:

Dillard Academy is the sole public charter elementary school serving the Goldsboro, North Carolina area. With a student population of 277, the school faces significant academic challenges, consistently ranking in the bottom 10-15% of elementary schools in the state over the past 3 years. Dillard Academy's student body is predominantly African American (90.25%) and comes from low-income households, with 97.11% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Academically, Dillard Academy struggles, with proficiency rates on state standardized tests well below the state averages across grade levels and subject areas.
