CIS Academy

Summary:

CIS Academy is the sole public charter middle school located in Pembroke, North Carolina, serving students in grades 6-8. With only 112 students, the school has a relatively small student population and a student-teacher ratio of 12.8, slightly lower than the state average.

CIS Academy's academic performance has been mixed compared to state averages. While the school's 7th grade math proficiency rate was higher than the state average, its 6th grade math and reading proficiency rates were lower. Similarly, the 8th grade math and reading proficiency rates lagged behind state averages, though the 8th grade science proficiency rate was higher. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the past few years, ranging from 422 out of 784 middle schools in 2022-2023 to 551 out of 793 in 2023-2024, indicating inconsistent performance.

Notably, CIS Academy serves a student population with significant socioeconomic challenges, as evidenced by the high percentage (63.39% in 2023-2024) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. This factor may contribute to the school's academic outcomes and the need for targeted support and resources to address the unique needs of its student body.
