Summary:
The 27104 zip code in North Carolina is home to a single middle school, Wiley Magnet Middle School, which serves grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 783 students. The school is part of the Winston-Salem/Forsyth County Schools district, which is ranked 159 out of 242 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Wiley Magnet Middle School's academic performance is a concern, as its test scores lag significantly behind both the district and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 8th grade math, only 21.9% of students were proficient or better, compared to 38.9% for the district and 48.7% for the state. The school also has an extremely high rate of free/reduced lunch recipients at 99.62%, indicating a high-poverty student population.
Despite being a magnet school, which typically aim to provide specialized or enhanced educational programs, Wiley Magnet Middle School's performance data suggests it is not effectively meeting the needs of its students. The school's per-student spending for the 2018-2019 school year was $9,915, and it has a student-teacher ratio of 15.1 to 1. These factors, combined with the high poverty rate, likely contribute to the academic challenges faced by the school's students.
