Summary:
Research Triangle Charter is the only elementary school located in the Research Triangle Charter District in North Carolina. This public charter school serves students from kindergarten through 8th grade and has a diverse student population, with a majority of African American students and significant Hispanic and multiracial representation.
While Research Triangle Charter has some academic bright spots, such as its 8th grade science proficiency rate exceeding the state average, the school's overall academic performance, as measured by state test scores, is below the state average. This may be due in part to the school's high free/reduced lunch rate of 77.34%, indicating that the school serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges.
Compared to other schools in North Carolina, Research Triangle Charter is ranked 1199 out of 1505 elementary schools and is rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger. The school's district, Research Triangle Charter District, is ranked 187 out of 242 districts in the state and is also rated 1 out of 5 stars. These low rankings suggest that the school may be facing systemic challenges that are not unique to the school itself, and addressing these broader issues could be important for improving the school's performance.
