Summary

Southeast Raleigh Elementary is a public magnet elementary school serving 406 students in grades PK-5 in Raleigh, North Carolina. The school is part of the Wake County Schools district, which is ranked 60th out of 242 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being part of a highly-ranked district, Southeast Raleigh Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the district and state on standardized test scores across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, only 22.4% of 3rd graders were proficient in reading, compared to 57.2% for Wake County and 46.7% for the state. The school also struggles to support the academic achievement of its student subgroups, with its African American students and English Language Learners ranking in the bottom 20% of elementary schools in North Carolina.

The nearby magnet schools, such as Washington Elementary, Conn Elementary, and Hunter Elementary, significantly outperform Southeast Raleigh Elementary on standardized tests, often exceeding the district and state averages. This suggests that the magnet school model may be more effective at supporting student achievement in this area. Addressing the disparities and implementing targeted interventions will be crucial for improving outcomes for the students at Southeast Raleigh Elementary.
