Tillery Charter Academy

Tillery Charter Academy is the sole elementary school serving grades K-6 in the Tillery Charter Academy District, located in Biscoe, North Carolina. With a total enrollment of 164 students, the school has consistently underperformed academically compared to other elementary schools in the state, ranking in the bottom half of North Carolina schools over the past three years.

According to the data, Tillery Charter Academy has a predominantly White student population (77.44%), with significant percentages of African American (8.54%) and multiracial (7.93%) students. The school's test scores in mathematics, reading, and science are generally below the state averages, with proficiency rates ranging from 20% to 65.6% across different grade levels and subject areas. The school's overall rating by SchoolDigger has also declined from 2 stars out of 5 in 2023-2024 to 1 star out of 5 in 2022-2023 and 0 stars out of 5 in 2021-2022, indicating a concerning trend in the school's quality and effectiveness.

Despite the school's smaller student-teacher ratio of 14.3, which is slightly lower than the state average, Tillery Charter Academy has struggled to improve its academic performance and overall quality. The uneven test scores across grade levels and subject areas suggest a need for more targeted interventions and support to address the unique needs of the school's diverse student population and improve student outcomes.
