Summary

Reaching All Minds Academy is a K-8 charter school in east Durham, NC, enrolling 391 students in kindergarten through eighth grade. A decade ago, the school ranked in the single digits statewide; by 2024-25 it climbed to the 52nd percentile with a 3-star rating. In 2025-26 it sits at the 46th percentile with a 2-star rating — a small step back, but a fundamentally stronger school than it was in the past.

The strongest results are in elementary academics and with high-need students. Grades 3-5 math proficiency averages 68.4%, above the state's 63.6%, and 5th-grade science hits 77.3% versus 67.7% statewide. Subgroup results are notable: English Language Learners rank in the 85th percentile statewide, Hispanic students in the 71st, and low-income students in the 66th. Among nearby schools, it outranks Merrick-Moore Elementary (41st percentile), R N Harris Elementary (36th), Eastway Elementary (18th), and Y E Smith Elementary (4th), while trailing Burton Elementary (69th), Glenn Elementary (62nd), and Oak Grove Elementary (60th). Chronic absenteeism (30.5%) is also better than the Durham Public Schools district average (36.1%).

The biggest challenge is middle school. Grades 6-8 math (43.5%) and reading (43.1%) trail the state, and 8th-grade science (36.6%) is far below the state's 68.6%. Among K-8 charters, Maureen Joy Charter School posts clearly stronger middle-grades scores — 6th-grade math is 35.3% here versus 69.1% there — though it wins at the elementary level (5th-grade math: 72.7% vs. 40.0%). Year-to-year swings in middle-grade scores are wide, so treat exact percentages cautiously, but the pattern of weaker grade 6-8 results is consistent. Improving attendance in those grades would be a logical next step toward consistent 3- or 4-star ratings.
