Summary

Aurelian Springs Institute of Global Lea is an elementary school located in Littleton, North Carolina, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 136. The school is part of the Halifax County Schools district, which is ranked 223 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Over the past 10 years, Aurelian Springs Institute of Global Lea has consistently ranked in the bottom third of North Carolina elementary schools, with a current statewide rank of 961 out of 1,490 schools and a 2-star rating.

Academically, Aurelian Springs Institute of Global Lea struggles compared to the state and its local district. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in mathematics, reading, and science were significantly lower than the state and district averages. For example, in 5th grade mathematics, the school's proficiency rate was 68.4% compared to 59.3% for the state and 38.3% for the Halifax County Schools district. The school's performance also varies significantly by student subgroup, with lower proficiency rates for African American and low-income students compared to their peers statewide.

Despite the school's challenges, it has a relatively low student-to-teacher ratio and higher per-student spending than the state average. Nearby schools, such as Inborden Elementary S.T.E.A.M. Academy, consistently outperform Aurelian Springs Institute of Global Lea on academic measures. While the high concentration of students from low-income families likely contributes to the school's struggles, the available resources suggest that targeted interventions and support could potentially help the school make progress in the future.
