Summary

Rodgers Elementary is a K–5 school in Williamston, North Carolina, serving 219 students within Martin County Schools. Nearly every student at the school (about 98.6%) qualifies for free or reduced lunch, reflecting a high-need community where most nearby schools face similar economic challenges.

Despite that context, Rodgers ranked 569th out of 1,492 North Carolina elementary schools in 2025-26, placing in the 62nd percentile and earning a 3-star rating. The school's strongest subject is math: 3rd graders posted an 85.7% proficiency rate (well above the state average of 66.4%), and 4th and 5th graders also beat state averages. Reading is more mixed, with 3rd grade above the state average (66.7% vs. 55.6%) but 4th and 5th grades below. The school has also made dramatic progress in special education outcomes, moving from the 7th percentile in 2023-24 to the 92nd percentile in 2025-26. Chronic absenteeism has fallen from 40% in 2021-22 to 23.1% in 2024-25, now better than both district and state averages.

Rodgers is the second-highest-ranked elementary school in Martin County, behind Williamston Primary, which ranks in the 96th percentile. Among nearby schools, Rodgers outranks Jamesville Elementary, Stokes Elementary, and South Creek Elementary, and it sits far above E J Hayes Elementary and Pactolus. Williamston Primary's success — including 100% proficiency in 5th-grade math — shows what is possible in the same district with similar demographics, while Rodgers' own math and attendance gains demonstrate real momentum. Upper-elementary reading and science remain the clearest opportunities for improvement.
