Summary:

The Girls Leadership Academy of Wilmington is the sole public charter high school serving grades 6-12 in Wilmington, North Carolina. This diverse school has a student population that is roughly evenly split between White, African American, and Hispanic students, and an extremely high free/reduced lunch rate of 99.22%, indicating it serves a predominantly low-income community.

Academically, the school shows a mixed performance, with strengths in certain subject areas like reading, science, and some end-of-course exams, but weaknesses in mathematics. The school's statewide ranking of 321 out of 640 North Carolina high schools and a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger suggest there is room for improvement in overall academic outcomes. However, the school's higher district ranking of 103 out of 242 districts, rated 3 out of 5 stars, indicates it may be performing better relative to other schools in the local Girls Leadership Academy of Wilmington area.

The challenges faced by the Girls Leadership Academy of Wilmington, such as serving a low-income student population and the mixed academic performance, highlight the need for targeted interventions and support to help improve student outcomes across all subject areas.
