Summary:
The city of Teachey, North Carolina has only one public high school, Wallace-Rose Hill High, which serves grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 757 students. The school is part of the Duplin County Schools district, which is ranked 196 out of 242 districts in North Carolina and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Wallace-Rose Hill High has consistently underperformed the Duplin County Schools and North Carolina state averages on standardized test scores, with proficiency rates below the district and state in subjects like Biology, English II, Math I, and Math III. The school's 4-year graduation rate for the 2024-2025 school year was 87.7%, which is a positive metric, but the school's statewide ranking has dropped from 524 out of 640 high schools in 2023-2024 to 590 out of 641 high schools in 2024-2025, indicating a potential decline in performance relative to other schools in the state.
Additionally, Wallace-Rose Hill High has an extremely high rate of free and reduced lunch recipients at 99.6%, suggesting a student population with significant economic challenges. The school's spending per student of $12,968 for the 2018-2019 school year is higher than the national average, but it does not seem to be translating into improved academic outcomes. The school's student-teacher ratio of 16.1 to 1 in the 2023-2024 school year is also a factor that may impact the school's performance.
