Global E-Learning Academy

Q: Is Global E-Learning Academy a good school?

Global E-Learning Academy ranks 463 rd of 640 North Carolina high schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 1 star out of 5.

Summary:

Global E-Learning Academy is a public virtual high school serving grades 6-12 in Elkin, North Carolina, with a small student population of 74. While the Elkin City Schools district is ranked 68 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating, Global E-Learning Academy faces several challenges compared to nearby schools.

The school's academic performance is a concern, with significantly lower proficiency rates compared to the Elkin City Schools district and the state of North Carolina across various subject areas and grade levels. For example, in 8th grade Math, the school's proficiency rate was 46.7% compared to 49.5% for the district and 46.9% for the state. The school's performance is particularly concerning in subjects like Biology and Math I, where the proficiency rates are much lower than the district and state averages. Additionally, the school's racial makeup is not representative of the surrounding community, with a higher percentage of White students (72.97%) and a lower percentage of Hispanic students (6.76%) compared to the nearby Elkin High School and the state's demographics.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Elkin High School, North Wilkes High School, and Yadkin Early College, Global E-Learning Academy's performance and student demographics are less favorable. These nearby schools demonstrate stronger academic performance and more diverse student populations, suggesting that the virtual nature of Global E-Learning Academy may contribute to the differences in student outcomes.

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.
