Summary

Morehead Elementary at Camp Glenn is a public elementary school serving grades 4-5 in Morehead City, North Carolina, with 255 students. The school is part of the Carteret County Public Schools district, which is ranked 33 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating.

Morehead Elementary's student performance on state standardized tests is generally on par with or slightly below the Carteret County and North Carolina averages across grade levels and subjects. However, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with high rankings for its African American and disabled student populations, but very low rankings for its Hispanic and English Language Learner students. The school's high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, combined with its slightly above-average per-student spending and student-teacher ratio, may indicate that it is operating with limited resources compared to other schools in the district and state.

When compared to other elementary schools in the Carteret County district, Morehead Elementary generally performs on par or slightly below the district averages, with the exception of its stronger 5th grade science scores. However, it outperforms the nearby Craven County schools, which have lower overall rankings and student achievement levels. Despite its challenges, Morehead Elementary's fluctuating performance and rankings over the years suggest that the school has the potential to improve its academic outcomes, particularly if it can address the needs of its underperforming student subgroups and secure additional resources to support its teachers and students.
