Pitt County Schools


Summary:

The Pitt County Schools district in North Carolina encompasses 40 schools, including 23 elementary schools, 7 middle schools, 8 high schools, and 2 alternative schools. The district serves a diverse student population and faces a range of academic performance levels across its schools.

Several schools in the district stand out for their exceptional performance. Chicod is an elementary/middle school that ranks among the top 5% of elementary schools in North Carolina, with consistently high test scores. Hope Middle is a middle school that ranks in the top 10% of middle schools statewide, with strong math and reading proficiency. The district's two early college high schools, PCS Early College High School and Innovation Early College High, are also among the top-performing high schools in the state.

While some schools, like Wahl Coates Elementary and Wellcome Middle, struggle with very low proficiency rates, others, such as Wintergreen Intermediate, rank in the top 10% of elementary schools statewide. The district's overall four-year graduation rate is on par with the state average, but there is room for improvement in ensuring equitable educational opportunities for all students.
