Summary

Eastern Randolph High School is a public high school in Ramseur, NC, serving 586 students in grades 9–12 as part of the Randolph County School System, a district ranked in the middle of the pack statewide. The school itself, however, sits near the bottom: it is currently ranked 611th of 662 North Carolina high schools (8th percentile, 0-star rating) and has been in the bottom 10–20% of the state for over a decade. Proficiency on End-of-Course exams is dramatically lower than district and state averages in every subject. For example, just 9.0% of students scored proficient in Math I in 2025–2026, versus 34.2% across the district and 42.1% statewide. Biology (30.9%), English II (37.5%), and Math III (34.4%) also trail the state by roughly 20 to 35 percentage points.

Chronic absenteeism is an equally serious concern: 47.2% of Eastern Randolph students miss at least 10% of the school year, nearly double the state average of 24.2%. This rate is stark compared with nearby Providence Grove High School (24.5%) and Randleman High School (22.7%), both of which also outperform Eastern Randolph on every End-of-Course subject. Even schools serving similarly high-poverty populations, such as Southeast Guilford High and Asheboro High, post substantially higher proficiency rates, which suggests that poverty alone does not explain the gap.

One bright spot: Eastern Randolph’s graduation rate is 88.7%, nearly matching the state average. That combination — strong graduation but very low test proficiency — suggests many students may be earning diplomas without reaching grade-level academic mastery, particularly in mathematics. Class sizes (16:1) and per-student spending are in line with or better than nearby schools, so resources are not the primary obstacle. Parents considering this school may want to ask about attendance support, math intervention programs, and the specific steps being taken to reduce chronic absenteeism, as these appear to be the most important levers for improvement.
