Summary:

The 28103 zip code area is home to 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. While the schools in this area vary significantly in their academic performance and student demographics, New Salem Elementary stands out as the top performer, consistently achieving high proficiency rates on state tests and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

In contrast, Forest Hills High School appears to be the weakest performer, with test scores well below the district and state averages, especially in math and biology. The school's low rankings and 1-2 star rating from SchoolDigger suggest it is struggling to provide a high-quality education, particularly for its high percentage of economically disadvantaged students (68.9% free/reduced lunch).

The racial and socioeconomic demographics of the schools in this area seem to be a key factor in their academic outcomes. New Salem Elementary, which is predominantly white (89.6%) and has a relatively low percentage of economically disadvantaged students (33.2%), outperforms the more racially diverse and economically disadvantaged schools in the Union County Public Schools district.
