The city of Roseboro, North Carolina is home to three schools - two elementary schools (Roseboro Elementary and Beaver Dam Elementary) and one middle school (Roseboro-Salemburg Middle). Based on the data provided, Beaver Dam Elementary stands out as the top-performing school in the area, earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger and ranking 45th out of 1,490 North Carolina elementary schools.

Beaver Dam Elementary boasts consistently high test scores, with over 90% of students proficient or better in Math and Reading for 3rd and 5th grades over the past two school years. These scores far exceed the district (Cumberland County Schools) and state averages in North Carolina. Beaver Dam Elementary also has a lower percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients (97.22%) compared to the other two schools (both over 99%), as well as a lower student-teacher ratio of 11.3 and the highest per-student spending at $14,341.
