Summary:
The dataset for Schools in Rolesville Charter Academy follows just one school: Rolesville Charter Academy, a K–8 charter school in North Carolina serving 716 students and operating as its own charter school district, the Rolesville Charter Academy district. Because only one school is included, the analysis focuses on how the school compares with North Carolina state averages and on year-over-year trends within the school itself.
Rolesville Charter Academy's state ranking has climbed consistently, from the 35th percentile in 2023–24 to the 42nd percentile in 2024–25, then to the 56th percentile in 2025–26, while its star rating improved from 2 to 3 stars. The strongest single result is 5th grade science, where 76.9% of students were proficient in 2025–26, well above the state average of 67.7% and a +22.1 percentage point jump from the prior year. Middle-grade reading is also a bright spot: 4th, 5th, 6th, and 7th graders meet or beat state averages, and the school's reading average overall is essentially tied with the state. In math, 6th grade proficiency rose sharply from 37.8% to 57.1%, and 5th grade math also gained over 10 points, showing real progress.
Still, math remains the school's biggest overall challenge, with every tested grade below the state average in 2025–26; the widest gaps appear in 8th grade (−11.5 points) and 4th grade (−9.7 points). The most fragile results are in 8th grade, where reading fell sharply from 65.3% to 47.2% and math remains low at 41.5%, even though 8th grade science improved significantly to 61.5%. Chronic absenteeism is a positive outlier at 15.8%, versus the state rate of 24.2%, and the school serves a student body in which about 59% qualify for free/reduced lunch. Overall, Rolesville Charter Academy appears to be on a promising trajectory, with rising rank, stronger subject averages, and notable gains in science and middle-grade reading—though the large single-year swings, especially in 8th grade, should be watched closely.
