Summary:
Caswell County Schools has only one high school, Bartlett Yancey High, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's academic performance is consistently low, with proficiency rates significantly below the state averages across multiple subjects. This is concerning, as the school serves a student population with a high rate of economic disadvantage, with 64.06% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
Bartlett Yancey High's End-of-Course (EOC) proficiency rates are particularly troubling, with only 13.9% of students proficient in Biology, 40.5% in English II, 18.6% in Math I, and 34.7% in Math III, compared to state averages ranging from 36.9% to 59.7%. The school has received a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past three school years, indicating it is among the lowest-performing high schools in North Carolina. The school's spending per student of $10,586 raises questions about whether it is adequately resourced to support its students' educational needs.
With only one high school in the Caswell County Schools district, there are no clear standout schools to identify. However, the data highlights the significant academic challenges faced by Bartlett Yancey High, which may be exacerbated by the high poverty levels among its student population. Addressing these issues will be crucial for improving educational outcomes and providing students with the resources they need to succeed.
