Summary

South Iredell High is a public high school located in Statesville, North Carolina, serving grades 9-12 with a total enrollment of 1,675 students. It is part of the Iredell-Statesville Schools district, which is ranked 102 out of 242 districts in North Carolina and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

South Iredell High has shown a mixed academic performance compared to the state and district averages. While it performs better than the state and district in some subject areas like English II and Math III, it lags behind in others like Biology and Math I. The school has maintained a relatively strong 4-year graduation rate, ranging from 86.5% to 91.5% over the past few years, which is on par with or slightly above the state and district averages. However, the school's performance varies significantly across different student subgroups, with Asian and multi-racial students performing well, but African American, Hispanic, and English Language Learner students performing below state and district averages in many subject areas.

Nearby schools like Collaborative College for Technology and Crossroads Arts Sciences Early College stand out for their exceptional academic performance, consistently ranking among the top high schools in the state. Their students significantly outperform South Iredell High and the state/district averages across all subject areas, suggesting they may serve as models for improving academic outcomes. In contrast, West Iredell High and Statesville High, also within the Iredell-Statesville Schools district, lag behind South Iredell High in academic performance, with much lower proficiency rates in core subjects.
