Two Rivers Community School

Summary:

Two Rivers Community School is a public charter elementary school serving grades K-8 in Boone, North Carolina, with 164 students and a predominantly white student population.

The school consistently outperforms the state average in both math and reading proficiency across all grade levels, with 5th grade math proficiency at 70% compared to the state average of 58.1%. However, the school has a significant performance gap between male and female students, with male students ranking 783 out of 1,461 North Carolina elementary schools, while female students rank 207 out of 1,455. Additionally, the school's white students underperform compared to the state average, ranking 789 out of 1,166 North Carolina elementary schools. Despite these equity concerns, Two Rivers Community School maintains a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and has a relatively high student-teacher ratio of 11.9, compared to nearby Bethel Elementary (7.5) and Watauga Virtual Academy (4.4).

While Two Rivers Community School has consistently outperformed the state in academic proficiency, its statewide ranking has declined in recent years, dropping from 135 in 2017-2018 to 408 in 2023-2024. This could be due to the school's relatively small size and the performance of other schools in the Watauga County Schools district, which is ranked 39 out of 242 districts in North Carolina. The school may need to address equity and inclusion issues to ensure all students are receiving the support they need to succeed.

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.
