Summary

Martin Millennium Academy is a K-8 school in Tarboro, NC, serving 548 students in the Edgecombe County Public Schools district, where nearly all students (about 98%) participate in the free/reduced-price lunch program.

Martin is a high-poverty school that performs below statewide averages but stands out as one of the stronger schools in its local area. The school currently holds a 1-star rating and ranks at the 16th percentile statewide, which places it above most nearby schools in Edgecombe County including Baskerville Elementary, D S Johnson Elementary, and Princeville Elementary. In fact, Martin outperforms its district in most grade levels — for example, 8th grade math proficiency is 41.4% at Martin versus 29.4% districtwide. Science is the school's clearest academic strength, with 5th and 8th grade science scores landing within about 5 points of the state average. The school also serves its special education students notably well, with that subgroup ranking at the 45th percentile statewide in the most recent year and 70th percentile the year before — far above the school's overall ranking.

The most concerning pattern at Martin is a pronounced academic dip in fifth grade. While 4th grade math proficiency is a strong 51.9% and 6th grade reading is 47.3%, 5th grade math drops to just 25.9% and 5th grade reading to 22.4%. This suggests a potential transition issue that deserves attention. The comparison with G W Carver Elementary is also instructive: Carver serves a nearly identical student population with the same poverty rate and similar absenteeism, yet outperforms Martin dramatically in elementary math and reading. That said, Martin has shown meaningful momentum in recent years, climbing from the 6th percentile in 2021-2022 to the 16th percentile today, and its chronic absenteeism rate of 32.3% is better than most of its district peers — a sign that continued improvement is possible.
