Summary:

This small public elementary school has a predominantly white student population, with 84.42% white students, 11.69% Hispanic students, and 3.9% students of two or more races.

Traphill Elementary School's academic performance has been mixed, with the school's statewide ranking fluctuating between 732nd and 863rd out of over 1,500 North Carolina elementary schools in recent years. While the school excels in certain grade levels and subjects, such as 4th grade mathematics and 5th grade science, it underperforms compared to district and state averages in other areas. The school's high percentage of students (96.1%) qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch suggests that it serves a socioeconomically disadvantaged community.

Despite the school's challenges, it appears to have adequate resources, with a relatively high per-student spending of $13,971 and a low student-teacher ratio of 11.4. However, further analysis is needed to understand how these resources are being utilized and whether they are effectively supporting student learning and achievement. Overall, the data highlights the need for targeted interventions and strategies to address the school's unique demographic and academic performance factors and ensure that all students have the opportunity to succeed.
