Best Public Schools in Zip Code 27249

Summary:

The 27249 zip code area in North Carolina is home to 3 public schools - 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school - all part of the Guilford County Schools district. Unfortunately, these schools consistently underperform compared to state and district averages, with low statewide rankings and test scores across the board.

None of the schools in the 27249 area stand out as high-performing. Eastern Guilford High, Eastern Guilford Middle, and Gibsonville Elementary all rank in the bottom half of their respective school types in North Carolina. These schools also face significant socioeconomic challenges, with high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 60% to over 75%.

The resource constraints faced by these schools are evident in their low spending per student, which falls below the state average, and relatively high student-teacher ratios. Addressing the underlying issues that contribute to the consistently poor performance of schools in the 27249 zip code area will likely require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to improve educational outcomes for the diverse student populations they serve.
