Best Public Schools in Zip Code 27863


Summary:

The 27863 zip code area is home to 3 schools - 2 elementary schools (Northwest Elementary and Northeast Elementary) and 1 high school (Charles B Aycock High). These schools serve a predominantly low-income population, with over 99% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

Among the standout schools, Northwest Elementary stands out, ranking 530 out of 1,505 North Carolina elementary schools and outperforming the Wayne County Public Schools district and the state of North Carolina in several key test score metrics. In contrast, Charles B Aycock High has a more diverse student population, with a racial makeup of 53.48% White, 23.89% African American, and 15.06% Hispanic, and it outperformed the district and state in Math I and Math III end-of-course exams.

Despite the challenges faced by these schools, such as high poverty levels and potential funding disparities, the data suggests that effective teaching practices and other factors may contribute to the relatively higher academic achievement at Northwest Elementary. However, the relatively high student-teacher ratios, especially at Northeast Elementary, may indicate staffing challenges that could impact the quality of instruction and individual attention students receive.
