Best Public Schools in Zip Code 27045

Summary:

The 27045 zip code in North Carolina is home to a single elementary school, Rural Hall Elementary, which serves grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 492 students. While the school's student population is diverse, with a mix of White, African American, and Hispanic students, it consistently underperforms compared to the district and state averages in academic proficiency across multiple subjects and grade levels.

Rural Hall Elementary's low academic performance is likely exacerbated by the high poverty levels among its student population, with an extremely high percentage (99.39%) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.6 to 1 and slightly higher-than-average spending per student, these resources do not appear to be effectively translating into improved student outcomes. The school's 2-star rating out of 5 from SchoolDigger places it below the state and Winston Salem / Forsyth County Schools district averages.

While the data suggests significant challenges facing Rural Hall Elementary, it also provides a starting point for identifying areas of focus for improvement. By addressing the school's specific academic weaknesses and understanding the unique needs of its student population, targeted interventions and support could potentially help the school improve its performance and provide a better educational experience for its students.
