Summary

Ceasar Cone Elementary is a public elementary school in Greensboro, North Carolina, serving 422 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Guilford County Schools district, which is ranked 142 out of 242 districts in the state.

Ceasar Cone Elementary has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing elementary schools in North Carolina, with student proficiency rates significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 54.7% of 3rd graders, 37.5% of 4th graders, and 38.1% of 5th graders at Ceasar Cone Elementary were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 62.4% and 64.1% at the district and state levels, respectively. The school's performance is particularly low for Hispanic and Special Education student subgroups.

Despite the school's higher per-student spending compared to the district average, this does not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes. Nearby schools, such as Bessemer Elementary and Rankin Elementary, also have high percentages of low-income and minority students and are performing below the district and state averages. In contrast, the magnet schools like General Greene Elementary and Brooks Global Elementary, which serve more diverse student populations, are performing significantly better than Ceasar Cone Elementary and the district average.
