Summary:

Old Main STREAM Academy is a public charter elementary school in Pembroke, North Carolina, serving 280 students from kindergarten to 6th grade. It is part of the Public Schools of Robeson County district, which is ranked 51 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

Old Main STREAM Academy stands out for its strong academic performance, consistently outperforming the state and district averages in mathematics and reading proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, 74.4% of 3rd-grade students were proficient or better in mathematics, compared to the state average of 62.7%. The school also ranks 1st out of 28 North Carolina elementary schools for its Native American student population, with a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past three school years. Additionally, Old Main STREAM Academy has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 9.2 to 17.1 over the past two school years, which is lower than the surrounding L Gilbert Carroll, Peterson Elementary, and other nearby schools.

While Old Main STREAM Academy's overall performance is strong, there are some areas that warrant attention. The school faces challenges related to socioeconomic factors, with 36.43% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year. Additionally, there are gender-based performance gaps, with female students ranking higher than male students in the 2023-2024 school year. These insights suggest that the school may need to explore strategies to address these disparities and support the academic and social-emotional needs of all its students.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
