Summary:
Southern Wake Academy is the sole high school located in the Holly Springs area of North Carolina, serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 579 students. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.5 to 1, its academic performance has been declining in recent years, with its state-wide ranking dropping from 297 out of 621 high schools in 2021-2022 to 471 out of 640 high schools in 2023-2024. Additionally, the school's overall rating by SchoolDigger has dropped from 3 stars to 1 star out of 5 during this time period.
Academically, Southern Wake Academy has a mixed performance on state-wide tests, with some areas of strength, such as 7th grade math and English II, but also significant weaknesses in 6th and 8th grade math, 8th grade science, and Math I and Math III end-of-course exams. The school's student population is also predominantly White (74.78%), with relatively low percentages of minority students, which could be an area of concern for the school's diversity and inclusiveness.
Overall, the data suggests that Southern Wake Academy is a school that is struggling to maintain its academic standing and may need to address several areas of concern, including declining performance, uneven test scores, and a lack of student diversity. Further analysis and investigation would be necessary to fully understand the school's challenges and develop strategies for improvement.
