High Schools in Transylvania County Schools

Summary:

The Transylvania County Schools district in North Carolina is home to three high schools: Brevard High, Rosman High, and Davidson River School. These schools serve students in grades 9-12 and are situated in a predominantly low-income area, as evidenced by the high free/reduced lunch rates across all three campuses.

Brevard High and Rosman High stand out as the top-performing high schools in the district, consistently ranking among the top 200 high schools in North Carolina. Both schools boast impressive test scores, particularly in subjects like English II, Math III, and Biology, where they outperform the district and state averages. Additionally, these two schools maintain a strong 87.7% four-year graduation rate.

In contrast, Davidson River School struggles with significantly lower test scores compared to the district and state, especially in Math I and English II. Despite having the highest spending per student at $16,825 and the lowest student-teacher ratio of 10.0, the school's statewide ranking and academic performance lag behind its counterparts. This suggests that the school may be allocating more resources to support its students, potentially due to their greater needs.
