Summary:
Dillard Academy is the sole elementary school located in Goldsboro, North Carolina. This school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of North Carolina elementary schools over the past three years, indicating a persistent struggle to meet academic standards. The school's performance on state standardized tests is significantly below the state average across all grade levels and subject areas, with proficiency rates ranging from 16.7% to 50% compared to state averages of 46.7% to 64.1%.
Dillard Academy faces significant challenges, including a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (97.67%) and a high student-to-teacher ratio of 42.6, both of which are factors often associated with difficulties in providing quality education. These demographic and resource constraints may be contributing to the school's low academic performance and the substantial gaps in proficiency rates compared to the state average.
To improve student outcomes at Dillard Academy, the school and the Dillard Academy district may need to implement targeted academic interventions, increase resources and support for teachers, and address the socioeconomic factors that may be impacting student learning. Addressing these challenges will be crucial in helping Dillard Academy to better serve its students and community.
