Summary

Alamance Community School is a public charter elementary school serving 633 students in grades K-6 in Haw River, North Carolina. The school is part of the Alamance Community School District, which is ranked 189 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Alamance Community School consistently underperforms the state average in both math and reading proficiency across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 3rd grade math proficiency was 44.3% compared to the state average of 64.1%, and its 3rd grade reading proficiency was 40.6% compared to the state average of 46.7%. The school also struggles to serve certain student subgroups effectively, with its rankings for male students, white students, students with disabilities, and economically disadvantaged students all in the bottom 25% of North Carolina elementary schools. Alamance Community School's statewide ranking has declined over the past few years, from 900 out of 1,502 schools in 2022-2023 to 1,044 out of 1,490 schools in 2024-2025, with a consistent 1- or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Interestingly, Alamance Community School's academic performance lags significantly behind nearby public schools in the Alamance-Burlington School District. For example, Audrey W. Garrett Elementary, located just 3 miles away, outperforms Alamance Community School across all grade levels and subject areas. This may be due in part to the high-poverty student population that Alamance Community School serves, as research has shown that poverty can be a significant barrier to student achievement. The school's declining statewide ranking and consistent 1- or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger may also be impacting its enrollment and reputation in the community.
