Summary:
Stoney Creek Elementary is a public elementary school in Charlotte, North Carolina, serving 743 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools district, which is ranked 140 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Academically, Stoney Creek Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom third of North Carolina elementary schools, with proficiency rates on state tests that are significantly below the state and district averages, particularly in reading. The school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with African American and Hispanic students performing better than the overall school, but students with disabilities and those from low socioeconomic backgrounds performing among the lowest in the state. Interestingly, the school's nearby counterparts, such as David Cox Road Elementary, Vaughan Academy of Technology, and Mallard Creek Elementary, generally perform better on state assessments, despite serving student populations with varying levels of economic disadvantage.
The high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch at Stoney Creek Elementary, as well as the school's low statewide ranking, suggest that the school may be facing significant challenges related to poverty, resource allocation, and other socioeconomic factors that can impact student learning and achievement. While the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio could be a positive factor, it does not appear to be translating into higher academic performance, indicating that other factors, such as teacher quality, instructional practices, and school leadership, may be playing a more significant role in the school's outcomes.
