of 1,492 North Carolina Elementary Schools

Better than 12% of North Carolina elementary schools

Summary

Rogers Lane Elementary is a PK–5 school in Raleigh, NC, serving 763 students in the Wake County Schools system, where nearly all students (98.4%) qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. The school sits within a strong district—Wake County ranks in the 76th percentile statewide—but Rogers Lane itself ranks in the 12th percentile, meaning roughly 88% of North Carolina schools outperform it. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 31.3%, compared with 20.5% for the district and 24.2% statewide.

Academically, Rogers Lane trails district and state averages in every tested subject. In 5th grade reading, only 35.0% of students were proficient versus 66.0% for the district. However, nearby schools serving similar populations show that stronger results are possible. Barwell Road Elementary, about 3 miles away with nearly identical poverty rates, ranks in the 41st percentile and posts significantly higher scores in every grade and subject. Hodge Road Elementary, just 1.4 miles away, ranks in the 33rd percentile. Meanwhile, higher-income nearby schools like Poe Elementary and Powell Elementary perform in a completely different tier, with Poe ranking in the 67th percentile.

There are signs of meaningful improvement. Rogers Lane has climbed from the 4th percentile in 2023–2024 to the 12th percentile in 2025–2026. Third grade math proficiency more than doubled, from 23.6% to 50.9%, in two years. Still, the most urgent concerns remain chronic absenteeism, 5th grade reading, and special education outcomes, with that subgroup ranking in the 1st percentile. Rogers Lane Elementary deserves credit for its recent progress, but it still has a long way to go relative to its Wake County peers.
