Summary:
Pamlico County Schools in North Carolina is home to two elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. Pamlico County Primary and Fred A Anderson Elementary serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, with over 98% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch at both schools.
Pamlico County Primary stands out with higher test scores compared to the district and state averages, particularly in 3rd grade math and reading. In contrast, Fred A Anderson Elementary has more mixed academic performance, with some grades and subjects exceeding state averages while others fall behind. This difference in academic achievement may be influenced by the higher per-student spending at Pamlico County Primary ($14,314 per student) compared to Fred A Anderson Elementary ($12,115 per student).
Both schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios, which could be a positive factor in providing more individualized attention and support for students. However, the impact of this ratio on academic achievement would require further analysis. Overall, the data highlights the need for continued monitoring of student performance, resource allocation, and targeted interventions to address the unique challenges faced by the economically disadvantaged student population in Pamlico County Schools.
