Summary:
The city of Belmont, North Carolina is home to 7 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. The schools in this area serve a diverse student population and demonstrate a range of academic performance, with some standout institutions leading the way.
South Point High and Stuart W Cramer High both have strong 4-year graduation rates, exceeding the state average. However, South Point High stands out with a higher statewide ranking and a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger, compared to Stuart W Cramer High's 2-star rating.
At the middle school level, Belmont Middle School consistently ranks among the top 25% of middle schools in North Carolina, with a 4-star rating and exceptional performance in mathematics. Among the elementary schools, Belmont Central Elementary and North Belmont Elementary stand out, with the former ranking in the top 20% of North Carolina elementary schools and the latter excelling in mathematics. However, the data also suggests potential equity concerns, as the two elementary schools with the highest rates of free and reduced lunch recipients, North Belmont Elementary and Catawba Heights Elementary, also have the highest per-student spending but lower test scores compared to their peers.
