Summary

Level Cross Elementary School is a Pre-K through 5th grade school in Randleman, North Carolina, serving about 440 students within the Randolph County School System, where more than 99% of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. Historically, the school was a steady mid-tier performer, usually ranking in the 53rd to 67th percentile statewide. But in the most recent school year, it fell sharply to the 27th percentile — a drop from 682nd to 1092nd place that is much larger than the smaller declines seen at nearby schools like Franklinville Elementary School, New Market Elementary School, or Grays Chapel Elementary School.

Level Cross's overall score hides uneven performance by grade. Fourth grade is a genuine bright spot: 71% of 4th graders scored proficient in math, well above the district average of 58% and the state average of 61%, and 4th grade reading essentially matched the state. By contrast, only 39% of 5th graders were proficient in math and just 34% in reading — the lowest 5th grade results among nearby schools. Third grade scores also trail district and state averages. One notable strength stands out: students receiving special education services performed at the 66th percentile statewide, far better than the school's overall 27th percentile ranking, showing that strong outcomes are possible within this building.

Attendance is another concern. Level Cross's chronic absenteeism rate was 25.3%, above the district rate of 22.5% and the state rate of 24.2%. Nearby schools serving similar populations have far lower rates — Trindale Elementary School sits at 13.2% and Grays Chapel at 15.3%. Poverty alone doesn't explain the gap: John R Lawrence Elementary School, about eight miles away, serves nearly the same high-poverty population yet ranks in the 70th percentile with only 17.7% chronic absenteeism. Level Cross has real strengths to build on, but the recent 3rd and 5th grade results, rising absenteeism, and broad subgroup declines suggest the school is at a pivotal moment.
