Summary

Madison Elementary is a public elementary school located in Mc Leansville, North Carolina, serving grades K-5 with a total enrollment of 193 students. The school is part of the Guilford County Schools district, which is ranked 142 out of 242 districts in the state.

Madison Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of North Carolina elementary schools, with significantly below-average performance on state standardized tests across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the percentage of 3rd-grade students proficient or better in Math was 29.7%, compared to 62.4% for Guilford County and 59.3% for the state. The school's Reading proficiency rates are also low, ranging from 29.7% in 3rd grade to 50% in 5th grade, compared to the district and state averages. While the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending than nearby schools, these factors do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes.

The nearby Bessemer Elementary, Rankin Elementary, and Ronald E. McNair Elementary schools also perform below the district and state averages on standardized tests, but generally outperform Madison Elementary. The school's performance varies significantly by student subgroup, with particularly low rankings for its White and Low Socioeconomic Status students, but relatively better performance for its Special Education students.
