Summary:
The city of Cherryville, North Carolina is home to 4 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The schools in this area face some challenges, with high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant socioeconomic disadvantages. However, there are also some standout schools that are performing well and could serve as models for the others.
John Chavis Middle School stands out as the top-performing school in the area, with the lowest student-to-teacher ratio in the Gaston County Schools district and strong test scores that exceed district and state averages. Meanwhile, Cherryville Elementary has the highest 3rd-grade math proficiency rate in the area, and a relatively low student-to-teacher ratio as well.
On the other hand, Cherryville High School and W.B. Beam Intermediate School have the lowest statewide rankings in the area, suggesting room for improvement. The racial makeup of the schools also raises questions about equity and access to educational opportunities for minority students in the Cherryville community.
