Summary

Fairview Elementary is a public elementary school in High Point, North Carolina, serving 422 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 and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Fairview Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 15% of North Carolina elementary schools over the past several years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past decade. The school's test scores are significantly lower than the Guilford County Schools and North Carolina state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 27.5% of 3rd-grade students were proficient or better in reading, compared to 45% for Guilford County and 46.7% for the state. Additionally, Fairview Elementary has an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 99.26% to 99.37% over the past few years, indicating a very high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

While Fairview Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 11.9 to 13.7 over the past few years, this has not translated into improved academic outcomes. The school's performance is significantly lower than most of the nearby schools in the Guilford County Schools district, including Northwood Elementary, Allen Jay Elementary, and Union Hill Elementary. Despite the availability of data and resources, Fairview Elementary has not shown significant improvement in its state rankings or test scores over the past several years, suggesting that more comprehensive, systemic changes may be necessary to improve student outcomes.
