Summary

B. Everett Jordan Elementary is a public elementary school located in Graham, North Carolina, serving 343 students in grades K-5. The school is part of the Alamance-Burlington Schools district, which is ranked 193 out of 242 districts in the state.

Despite having a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending than the district and state averages, B. Everett Jordan Elementary consistently ranks in the bottom quartile of North Carolina elementary schools, with its academic performance significantly below the Alamance-Burlington Schools district and the state of North Carolina averages across all grade levels and subject areas. The school's rankings for different student subgroups, such as female, male, Hispanic, and white students, are all in the bottom quartile of North Carolina elementary schools, indicating that the school may not be providing equitable educational opportunities and support for all students.

The persistent underperformance of B. Everett Jordan Elementary suggests that the school is struggling to effectively address the needs of its diverse student population and may require a comprehensive intervention or restructuring to improve student outcomes. This is further supported by the school's challenges in effectively allocating and utilizing its resources to improve student achievement, as evidenced by its higher per-student spending but continued underperformance compared to the district and state averages.
