Summary:
The 27379 zip code area is home to 3 public schools - 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school - all part of the Caswell County Schools district. Unfortunately, these schools appear to be struggling academically, with all three performing well below state averages on standardized test scores and school rankings.
The highest-ranked school in the area is Bartlett Yancey High School, but it still only ranks in the bottom half of North Carolina high schools with a 1-star rating. The school's test scores are significantly lower than state averages, with only 13.9% of students proficient or better in Biology EOC, 40.5% in English II EOC, 18.6% in Math I EOC, and 34.7% in Math III EOC. N.L. Dillard Middle School and Oakwood Elementary School also have low rankings and test scores compared to state averages.
The high rates of free/reduced lunch recipients, particularly at Oakwood Elementary (99.1%), indicate that the schools serve a predominantly low-income student population. Despite the low academic performance, the schools seem to be spending a relatively high amount per student, with Oakwood Elementary spending the most at $12,827 per student. This raises questions about the effective allocation of resources and the need for more targeted interventions to improve student outcomes in this area.
