Summary

Windsor Park Elementary is a PK-5 school in Charlotte, NC, serving 470 students as part of Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools, with nearly all families (99%) qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. The school currently ranks in the 49th percentile statewide, earning a 2-star rating — a solid middle-of-the-pack result that stands out given its demographics. Among nearby schools with similar poverty levels, Windsor Park outperforms most: Briarwood Academy sits at the 29th percentile, Lawrence Orr Elementary at the 44th, and Devonshire Elementary, Winterfield Elementary, Esperanza Global Academy, and Merry Oaks International Academy all land in the bottom 20th percentile. Windsor Park has also improved its state ranking for three consecutive years, climbing from the 33rd to the 49th percentile.

One key difference is attendance. Windsor Park's chronic absenteeism rate of 18.5% is well below the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools district average of 26.8% and roughly half the rate of nearby Devonshire (41.2%) or Merry Oaks (33.9%). The school is particularly effective with students who are often underserved: English Language Learner students rank in the 66th–74th percentile statewide, and low-income students rank in the 72nd–81st percentile. Fifth-grade math proficiency reached 84.4% in 2025–2026 — far above district (66.8%) and state (62.9%) averages, and higher than Shamrock Gardens Elementary's 76.7%.

Reading is the main area for improvement. Fourth- and fifth-grade reading scores trail district and state averages, and a steep "4th-grade dip" appeared in 2025–2026, with math falling from 62.9% to 46.5% and reading from 51.4% to 36.6% — likely reflecting a specific cohort challenge rather than a school-wide issue. Encouragingly, 3rd-grade reading jumped from 24.4% to 55.7%, nearly matching the state average. Windsor Park also outperforms nearby charter schools Movement School Eastland (49th vs. 48th percentile) and KIPP Charlotte (12th percentile), despite those schools serving similar populations. Overall, Windsor Park is a high-poverty school on an upward trajectory, with strong math instruction and notable success supporting its most vulnerable students.
