Summary

Junius H Rose High is a large traditional public high school in Greenville, NC, serving 1,568 students in grades 9–12 as part of Pitt County Schools. Rose ranks in the middle of the pack statewide (53rd percentile), and it stands out as one of the stronger academic performers among the area's high-poverty comprehensive high schools, outpacing nearby Ayden-Grifton High, North Pitt High, and Farmville Central High in most subjects.

One of the most encouraging trends is the graduation rate, which has jumped from 73.0% in 2021-2022 to 83.7% in 2025-2026 — narrowing the gap with the district rate from about 9 points to under 3 points. Academically, Rose exceeds state averages in Math I and Math III, and its English II scores have consistently beaten the district average. The school also achieves a remarkable result for English Learner students, ranking in the 91st percentile statewide for that subgroup. However, results are uneven: economically disadvantaged students rank in the 29th percentile, and chronic absenteeism remains a stubborn challenge at 30.0% — well above the district (21.7%) and state (24.2%) averages. Nearby D H Conley High, about 5.5 miles away, posts stronger outcomes across the board, including a 91.4% graduation rate and 19.6% chronic absenteeism, though it serves a very different demographic population.

Within Pitt County, Rose (53rd percentile) sits just behind South Central (55th percentile) among traditional high-poverty high schools, and comfortably ahead of Ayden-Grifton (35th), Farmville Central (34th), and North Pitt (19th). The school's steady math performance and recent graduation gains are genuine bright spots. If attendance improves, Rose is well-positioned to continue closing the gap with the district's top traditional high schools.
