Summary

Sedgefield Middle is a public middle school in Charlotte, North Carolina, serving 484 students in grades 6-8. The school 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.

Sedgefield Middle has shown mixed performance on state assessments compared to the district and state averages. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school outperformed the district and state in 6th and 8th grade reading, as well as 8th grade science, but underperformed in 6th and 7th grade math and 7th grade reading. The school's overall state ranking has fluctuated over the years, ranging from 249 out of 773 middle schools in 2024-2025 to 706 out of 737 in 2018-2019, indicating the school may be struggling to maintain or improve student achievement. Additionally, Sedgefield Middle has an extremely high percentage of students (over 99%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting the school serves a highly economically disadvantaged population.

When compared to nearby middle schools in the same district, such as Carmel Middle, Quail Hollow Middle, and Wilson STEM Academy, Sedgefield Middle generally underperforms on state assessments and has a lower overall state ranking. This indicates the school may need to examine its practices and strategies to improve student outcomes and address the significant performance gaps between different student subgroups.
