Summary

C B Eller Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Elkin, North Carolina, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 272 students. The school is part of the Wilkes County Schools district, which is ranked 104 out of 242 districts in the state.

C B Eller Elementary School has demonstrated strong academic performance, particularly in recent years. In the 2021-2022 school year, the school ranked 120 out of 1,514 North Carolina elementary schools and received a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, its ranking has fluctuated over the years, ranging from 63 to 754 out of the state's elementary schools. The school's performance varies across different student subgroups, with female students generally outperforming male students and low socioeconomic status students performing relatively well compared to their peers. The school's test scores are generally above the Wilkes County Schools and North Carolina state averages, particularly in mathematics and science.

When compared to nearby schools in the Wilkes County and Surry County school districts, C B Eller Elementary School generally outperforms its peers in academic metrics, such as test scores and school rankings. However, the school faces challenges in serving its economically disadvantaged student population, with a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Continued efforts to address these areas may help the school maintain and improve its academic outcomes.
