High Schools in Lenoir County Public Schools

The Lenoir County Public Schools district in North Carolina is home to 4 high schools, serving students in grades 9-12. The standout school in the district is Lenoir County Early College High, which consistently ranks among the top high schools in the state and outperforms the district and state averages on all End-of-Course (EOC) exams.

In contrast, the other three high schools in the Lenoir County Public Schools district struggle, with proficiency rates well below the state averages, particularly in Math I and Math III. All four high schools have very high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 98.59% to 99.69%, indicating that the district serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population.

The data also reveals significant differences in funding allocation, with Lenoir County Early College High having the lowest spending per student at $8,270, compared to the other schools' spending of $9,635 to $10,743 per student. This raises questions about the district's funding distribution and whether resources are being effectively allocated to support student success across all high schools in the Lenoir County Public Schools district.
