Summary

Konnoak Middle School is a public middle school in Winston Salem, NC, serving 363 students in grades 6–8 for the Winston Salem / Forsyth County Schools district. In the most recent reporting year (2025-2026), Konnoak ranked 756th of 778 North Carolina middle schools — the 3rd percentile, earning zero stars. This is not a new decline; the school has ranked in the bottom 1–3% of middle schools every reporting year since at least 2015-2016. Konnoak remains among the most persistently low-performing middle schools in the state.

Academically, Konnoak trails its district and state by a wide margin in every subject. In the most recent year, math proficiency ranged from 15.9% (8th grade) to 23.5% (6th grade), while district averages were 42–54% and state averages 53–59%. Reading results look similar: about one in five Konnoak students scored proficient, versus about half of students across the district and state. The school's 8th-grade science proficiency (41.9%) is a relative bright spot, although still below the district (58.7%) and state (68.6%). Nearby Thomas Jefferson Middle (84th percentile) and Meadowlark Middle (79th percentile) serve similar student populations yet produce dramatically stronger results, while Mineral Springs Middle (3rd percentile) posts outcomes close to Konnoak's.

Attendance is one of the clearest challenges — and opportunities. Konnoak's chronic absenteeism rate was 45.1% in 2024-2025, nearly double the state rate (24.2%) and well above the district rate (33.6%), though it has fallen steadily from 63.4% in 2021-2022. Konnoak also has a favorable 10.2-to-1 student-teacher ratio and reported per-pupil spending of about $11,000 in 2018-2019 — higher than several higher-performing neighbors — suggesting resources are not the main issue. Nearly all Konnoak students, and those at stronger nearby schools, qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, so poverty alone does not explain the gap. Math and science scores have improved since 2022-2023, but not enough to close the divide. Attendance recovery and targeted academic support are the most promising paths forward.
