Summary

Berryhill School is an elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Charlotte, North Carolina, with 421 students. It is part of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools district, which is ranked 119 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, Berryhill School has consistently been ranked in the bottom quarter of North Carolina elementary schools over the past decade, receiving 1-2 stars from SchoolDigger.

Berryhill School significantly underperforms the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools district and the state of North Carolina in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, only 40% of 3rd graders at Berryhill were proficient in reading compared to 46.5% in the district and 46.7% statewide. Additionally, the school has an extremely high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 99.29% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024, much higher than the district and state averages. Despite spending more per student than the district average at $12,434 per student in 2018-2019, Berryhill School's academic outcomes remain poor.

Nearby schools in the same district, such as Westerly Hills Academy and Tuckaseegee Elementary, perform significantly better than Berryhill School on standardized tests, despite serving similar student populations. This suggests that factors beyond just student demographics, such as school leadership, teaching quality, and instructional practices, may be contributing to Berryhill's underperformance. Addressing the root causes of Berryhill's consistent underperformance will likely require a multifaceted approach that goes beyond just increased funding.
