Summary

Stallings Elementary consistently outperforms the state and district averages in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subject areas. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school ranked 120th out of 1,490 North Carolina elementary schools and received a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's proficiency rates in Mathematics, Reading, and Science were significantly higher than the state and district averages, with 5th-grade Science proficiency reaching 88% compared to the state's 62% and the district's 78.9%.

While Stallings Elementary's overall performance is exceptional, the school's relatively lower rankings for Special Education and Gifted and Talented students suggest opportunities to enhance support and differentiation for these student populations. Additionally, the school's low percentage of free and reduced-price lunch recipients indicates a need to explore ways to further support students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. When compared to nearby schools, such as Bain Elementary and Elizabeth Lane Elementary, Stallings Elementary consistently outperforms its peers, particularly in Mathematics and Reading proficiency rates.

This is a truly outstanding school. Great for our child. She learns, has fun, and loves going each day. She has grown so much as a learner, and person since she began going to this school. I can't say enough great things. Teachers, administration, students, parents, and community are all phenomenal. We love Stallings Elementary School! Close Quote
