Elementary Schools in A.C.E. Academy


Summary:

A.C.E. Academy is the sole elementary school located in Harrisburg, North Carolina, serving grades K-8 with a total enrollment of 419 students. The school has a majority African American student population (75.66%) and a high percentage of students (58.95%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Academically, A.C.E. Academy is underperforming, with proficiency rates on end-of-grade (EOG) tests generally below the state averages across grade levels and subject areas. The school's performance is particularly low in 4th and 8th grade math, as well as 5th and 8th grade science. Additionally, the school's statewide ranking has declined over the past three years, from 946 out of 1,514 elementary schools in 2021-2022 to 1,156 out of 1,505 in 2023-2024, and it is currently rated 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

The racial imbalance and academic underperformance at A.C.E. Academy suggest potential issues with equity and access in the local education system, and the high poverty rates among the student population may contribute to the school's challenges in providing a high-quality education. Targeted interventions and support are likely needed to address the underlying issues and improve student success at this school.
