Summary:
The 28642 zip code in North Carolina has only one public elementary school, Jonesville Elementary, which serves grades PK-5 with 265 students. While the school has a diverse student population, it appears to be underperforming compared to the Yadkin County Schools district and the state of North Carolina as a whole.
Jonesville Elementary's test scores in both math and reading are significantly lower than the district and state averages, with only 28.9% of 3rd graders proficient in math compared to 61.7% for the district and 62.7% for the state. Additionally, the school has a low 2-out-of-5-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating it is performing below average compared to other elementary schools in the state. This underperformance may be related to the high percentage (82.26%) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
Despite these challenges, Jonesville Elementary does have a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 13.1 to 1, which is better than the national average. However, the school's spending per student of $9,636 is below the national average of around $12,000 per student. Overall, the data suggests that Jonesville Elementary may benefit from additional resources, targeted interventions, and a closer examination of the factors contributing to its underperformance in order to improve educational outcomes for its students.
