Summary

Donna L Loflin Elementary is a public elementary school in Asheboro, North Carolina, serving 296 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Asheboro City Schools district, which is ranked 201 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Donna L Loflin Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom quarter of North Carolina elementary schools, with proficiency rates on state tests significantly below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 3rd-grade proficiency rates in math and reading were 30.8% and 17.3%, compared to the state averages of 64.1% and 46.7%, respectively. The school's performance is particularly low for certain student subgroups. Additionally, the school has an extremely high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 74.31% to 98.99% over the past few years, indicating a very high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

While the other elementary schools in the Asheboro City Schools district also perform poorly on state assessments, some nearby schools in the Randolph County School System, such as Tabernacle Elementary, New Market Elementary, and Franklinville Elementary, significantly outperform Donna L Loflin Elementary and the other Asheboro City schools on academic measures, despite serving similar high-poverty student populations. This suggests that there may be opportunities for the Asheboro City schools to learn from and adopt effective practices from their higher-performing counterparts.
