Summary

Archdale Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades K-5 in Archdale, North Carolina, which is part of the Randolph County School System. The school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, dropping from a high of 267 out of 1,489 North Carolina elementary schools in 2020-2021 to 966 out of 1,490 in the most recent 2024-2025 school year.

Archdale Elementary's academic performance, as measured by proficiency rates on End-of-Grade (EOG) tests, is generally below the Randolph County and North Carolina state averages across grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 3rd grade math proficiency rate was 55.7% compared to 63.5% for the district and 64.1% for the state. The school has also seen a sharp increase in the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, rising from 55.94% in 2021-2022 to 99.11% in 2023-2024, indicating a high rate of economically disadvantaged students. When compared to nearby schools in the Guilford County Schools district, Archdale Elementary's performance is even lower, with schools like Union Hill Elementary, Parkview Village Elementary, and Fairview Elementary all having significantly higher proficiency rates and statewide rankings.

While Archdale Elementary's performance varies across different student subgroups, the school ranks particularly low for Asian and White students, suggesting the need for targeted interventions and support. The school's steady decline in statewide ranking over the past several years is also a concerning trend that warrants further investigation and action. Addressing these challenges will be crucial for improving the educational outcomes for the students at Archdale Elementary.
