Summary

Vandalia Elementary is a public elementary school in Greensboro, North Carolina, serving 243 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Guilford County Schools district, which is ranked 142 out of 242 districts in the state.

Vandalia Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of North Carolina elementary schools, with proficiency rates on End-of-Grade (EOG) tests significantly below the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 3rd-grade math proficiency rate was 62.5%, compared to 62.4% for Guilford County and 64.1% for North Carolina, while the 5th-grade math proficiency rate was only 36.1%. The school's performance varies across student subgroups, with African American and Hispanic students generally performing better than the overall student population, but low socioeconomic status (SES) students performing significantly worse.

Vandalia Elementary's high poverty rate, with over 98% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, may be a significant factor contributing to its academic challenges. Nearby schools in the Guilford County Schools district, such as Cyrus P Frazier Elementary, Bluford Elementary, and Archer Elementary, generally perform better on academic measures, suggesting that Vandalia Elementary may face unique challenges. Targeted interventions and support could be beneficial in improving student learning outcomes at the school.
