Rocky Mount Preparatory

Summary:

Rocky Mount Preparatory is a public charter school serving 1,022 students in grades K-12 in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, a diverse community with a majority African American population. However, the school has consistently underperformed academically compared to state averages and nearby charter schools.

Rocky Mount Preparatory's proficiency rates on standardized tests range from just 7.1% to 41.3% in math and 20% to 32.8% in reading, far below the state averages of 46.9% to 62.7% in math and 48.4% to 52.8% in reading. The school also has extremely high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, over 95%, significantly higher than the 30.81% to 97.78% range at nearby charter schools like Haliwa-Saponi Tribal School, Wilson Preparatory Academy, and North East Carolina Prep. Additionally, Rocky Mount Preparatory has a higher student-teacher ratio of 20.8, compared to the 8.9 to 19.4 range at nearby schools.

These factors suggest that Rocky Mount Preparatory is facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its predominantly low-income student population. Addressing issues such as teacher quality, instructional resources, and school leadership will be crucial for the school to improve student outcomes and provide a more equitable educational experience for the community. While the charter school model has proven effective at nearby schools, Rocky Mount Preparatory appears to be struggling to implement it successfully.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
