Summary

Winecoff Elementary is a public magnet elementary school located in Concord, North Carolina, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 759 students. The school is part of the Cabarrus County Schools district, which is ranked 66 out of 242 districts in North Carolina and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being part of a relatively high-performing district, Winecoff Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 20% of North Carolina elementary schools over the past 10 years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in Mathematics, Reading, and Science are significantly lower than the Cabarrus County Schools and North Carolina state averages across all grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Winecoff Elementary's 3rd-grade Mathematics proficiency rate was 51%, compared to 70.2% for Cabarrus County and 64.1% for the state.

While the school's overall academic performance is concerning, it appears to be serving its Gifted and Talented students well, with those students ranking in the top 5% of their subgroup statewide. This suggests the school may have effective strategies or resources in place to support high-achieving students, which could potentially be leveraged to improve outcomes for the broader student population. Additionally, the school's extremely high percentage of economically disadvantaged students is likely a significant contributing factor to its academic struggles, highlighting the importance of addressing the needs of students from low-income backgrounds.
