Summary

Stewart Creek High is a public charter high school in Charlotte, North Carolina, serving 335 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Stewart Creek High School District, which is ranked 230 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being located in Charlotte, Stewart Creek High has consistently underperformed academically, ranking 562 out of 641 high schools in North Carolina in the 2024-2025 school year and 504 out of 514 in 2018-2019. The school's low performance is particularly concerning for specific student subgroups, such as male students, African American students, and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, who all rank in the bottom 10-20% of their respective categories. Stewart Creek High's four-year graduation rates have ranged from 15.0% to 87.7%, significantly lower than the state average and nearby schools like West Mecklenburg High School, Hawthorne Academy of Health Sciences, and Military and Global Leadership, which generally perform better on academic metrics.

The data also highlights stark disparities in the performance of different student subgroups at Stewart Creek High. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 28.2% of students were proficient or better in end-of-course English II exams, compared to the state average of 59.6%, and only 33.3% were proficient or better in end-of-course Math I exams, compared to the state average of 34.4%. The school's high poverty levels, as indicated by the high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, may be a contributing factor to its academic challenges, though the exact percentages are not provided in the data.
