Summary

Yadkinville Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-8 in Yadkinville, North Carolina, part of the Yadkin County Schools district. With 522 students, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom half of North Carolina elementary schools over the past 10 years, typically receiving a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Yadkinville Elementary's test scores are generally below the Yadkin County Schools and North Carolina state averages across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, only 46.2% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in reading, compared to 42.3% for the district and 46.7% statewide. The school also has a very high percentage of students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, with 99.43% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024, significantly higher than nearby schools like Jonesville Elementary and East Bend Elementary.

Despite a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher spending per student compared to nearby schools, Yadkinville Elementary continues to underperform. This suggests the school may be facing challenges in how resources and staffing are being allocated and utilized to support the unique needs of its student population. While the nearby schools generally outperform Yadkinville Elementary, addressing the school's consistent underperformance will likely require a comprehensive approach that considers targeted interventions and strategies to improve student outcomes.
