Summary

The Virtual Academy at Randolph is a small elementary school serving grades K-8 in Asheboro, North Carolina, which is part of the Randolph County School System. With just 102 students, the school has consistently struggled academically, ranking 1311 out of 1490 North Carolina elementary schools in 2024-2025 and earning a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The Virtual Academy at Randolph's academic performance lags significantly behind both the Randolph County School System and the state of North Carolina as a whole. In mathematics, only 7.7% of 8th-grade students were proficient or better, compared to 38.1% in the district and 48.7% statewide. Reading and science proficiency rates follow a similar pattern, with 8th-grade students performing well below their peers in the district and across the state. The school's White student population, in particular, is performing at a much lower level compared to other elementary schools in North Carolina.

However, the school's low socioeconomic status (SES) students appear to be performing better relative to their peers, ranking 876 out of 1437 North Carolina elementary schools for this subgroup in 2024-2025. The reasons for this discrepancy are unclear, but it could indicate that the school is providing additional support or resources to this student population. Overall, The Virtual Academy at Randolph faces significant challenges in improving student outcomes, and the school's leadership and the Randolph County School System should work to address these issues and help students reach their full potential.
