Summary:
The city of Windsor, North Carolina is home to 4 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including Bertie Early College High, which stands out as the top-performing school in the district. While the Bertie County Schools district as a whole lags behind state averages on key metrics, Bertie Early College High consistently ranks among the best high schools in the state, with much higher test scores and a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
The other schools in the district, including Bertie High, Bertie Middle, and Windsor Elementary, generally perform below state averages on end-of-course and end-of-grade exams. However, all schools in the district have very high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic challenges facing the student population.
The data also reveals disparities in funding and resources across the district, with Bertie High receiving significantly more per-student funding than the middle and elementary schools. Additionally, the wide range in student-teacher ratios, from 11:1 at Bertie Middle to 29.5:1 at Bertie Early College High, suggests the district may need to re-evaluate its staffing and resource allocation to ensure more equitable access to educational opportunities across all schools.
