Summary

Coddle Creek Elementary is a public elementary school located in Mooresville, North Carolina, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 725 students. The school 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.

Coddle Creek Elementary consistently ranks among the top 25% of North Carolina elementary schools, with strong academic performance that exceeds the district and state averages, particularly in Mathematics. The school's 3rd-grade, 4th-grade, and 5th-grade proficiency rates in Mathematics consistently exceed 60%, significantly higher than the district and state averages. In Reading, the school also performs well, with proficiency rates ranging from 59.6% to 61.6% in the 2024-2025 school year, compared to the district and state averages. While the school's performance for Asian and Hispanic students, as well as English Language Learners and Gifted and Talented students, is exceptionally strong, the school may need to focus on addressing the achievement gaps for African American and White students, as well as students with disabilities and those from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

Compared to nearby schools, Coddle Creek Elementary's academic performance is generally stronger than the Lake Norman Elementary in the Iredell-Statesville Schools district. However, some schools in the Mooresville Graded School District, such as East Mooresville Intermediate and Davidson K-8 School, have even stronger academic performance, particularly in Mathematics and Reading. These differences in performance may be due to factors such as student demographics, resource allocation, and instructional practices.

What people are saying

Monday, January 14, 2013

This school is amazing with the kids. I'm not saying that every kid there is perfect. Of course, every school is going to have their pros and cons, their good students, and troublesome ones too. When a student distracted the class, they were punished, as to what they did. Of course, there were special needs children. They weren't punished for what they couldn't help, but they weren't left to go completely crazy, and do whatever they wanted, either. The teachers at this school are amazing, simply wonderful at their jobs. They shine uniquely at their different ways of teaching, and are always able to help kids blossom in their education. Mr. Foster is a wonderful, wonderful principal. As of a review posted before this one, a parent explains how Mr. Foster hired a new teacher after winter break. Yes, but it is not his fault. It took at least to months to get through to the district to talk over the fact that they needed a new teacher because of the large amount of kids in the 5th grade. Also, the teacher was hired at the end of November/beginning of December, not after winter break. Mr. Foster is just fine at decision making, and well deserves his job. This school provides an eBOB team (Elementary Battle of the Books, 4th and 5th grade), a robotics club (4th and 5th grade), and more. This is an amazing school, and I highly reccomend it. You and your child will love it here, they are very welcome and happy to meet new students! Close Quote

This was my school from K-5. I honestly would not regret a day or teacher. I will admit there was one teacher that I was not satisfied with, personally. I see that as just a bump in the road, that can just make you stronger. I will agree that Mr. Foster does not smile much, but is a great man. At CCE you get to know great people and great memories are made. One of my personal favorites was EBOB (Elementary Battle of the Books) my team I was on had placed first in district and eighth in regional. I was actually apart of the 5th grade swap (I'll call it that for times sake) and I do agree that it was a bit award, all of a sudden being without some classmates but being adaptable is fine. In my own opinion. It did take a lot longer, but in the end a great teacher was hired. Close Quote

Principle Foster is the worst decision maker. 5th graders were told at the begining of the school year that some of them would be changing homerooms when a new teacher was hired. They spent half the year with 30 kids in the class. The new teacher was hired and changes were made after Christmas break! How can you bond with your teacher with this kind of distraction cloud hanging over you? Also,I had an issue with a teacher and had to contact Mr. Foster about 10 times before he could resolve the problem. Then he never followed up. He never smiles, but why should he? Close Quote
