Summary

Kimmel Farm Elementary is a PK–5 school in Winston Salem, NC, serving 760 students in the Winston Salem / Forsyth County Schools district. After a difficult stretch during the pandemic years, the school is clearly moving upward: its statewide rank has climbed from the 21st percentile in 2022–2023 to the 45th percentile in 2025–2026, earning a 2-star rating and placing it 821st of 1,492 North Carolina elementary schools.

Academically, Kimmel now meets or slightly exceeds the district average in several subjects — including 5th grade math (61.8% proficient vs. a 61.0% district average) and 4th grade reading (55.2% vs. 53.5%). The school also outperforms a cluster of nearby Winston-Salem elementary schools serving similar student populations: Diggs-Latham Elementary, Griffith Elementary, Bolton Elementary, Ward Elementary, Konnoak Elementary, and South Fork Elementary all rank below Kimmel statewide. On the other hand, Clemmons Elementary and Frank Morgan Elementary are well ahead, and their notably lower chronic absenteeism rates suggest attendance is a key differentiator.

Kimmel's strongest results come with student groups that are often underserved: its African American students rank at the 82nd percentile statewide, and its low-income students rank at the 65th percentile — both well above the school's overall 45th percentile placement. Chronic absenteeism sits at 28.5%, below the district average of 33.6% but still above the state's 24.2%. The main concerns are English Learner outcomes, which have been declining to the 20th percentile, and a sharp drop in gifted-student results. All told, Kimmel Farm is a high-poverty school that is outperforming several comparable neighbors and building genuine momentum for continued improvement.
