Summary

Camden County High is a public high school in Camden, North Carolina, serving 453 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Camden County Schools district, which is ranked 38 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Camden County High has shown consistent improvement in its four-year graduation rates, reaching 93.2% in the 2024-2025 school year, which is higher than the state average. However, the school's performance on End-of-Course (EOC) exams is mixed compared to the state and district averages. While the school performs better than the state in English II and Math III, it lags behind in Biology and Math I. Additionally, the school's performance varies across different student subgroups, ranking relatively well for African American and Gifted and Talented students, but struggling with White, Low Socioeconomic Status, and Military Connected students.

Interestingly, Camden County High's performance is generally lower than that of the nearby Camden Early College High, which consistently outperforms the district and state averages on EOC exams. This suggests that the early college model may be more effective in improving student outcomes. Additionally, the presence of other high-performing schools, such as The JP Knapp ECH (i)School and Elizabeth City Pasquotank Early College, within a relatively short distance from Camden County High presents an opportunity for collaboration and sharing of best practices.
