Summary:
The 27809 zip code area is home to 4 schools - 2 elementary schools and 2 middle schools - that are part of the Nash County Public Schools and Edgecombe County Public Schools districts. While M B Hubbard Elementary stands out as the highest-performing school in the area, with strong proficiency rates in Mathematics and Science, Coker-Wimberly Elementary lags behind significantly, with most of its proficiency rates well below the district and state averages.
The data reveals a stark contrast in academic performance among the schools in the 27809 zip code area. The middle schools, Red Oak Middle and Phillips Middle, have particularly low proficiency rates in Mathematics and Reading across grades 6-8. This disparity in school quality suggests that the resources and educational opportunities available to students can vary greatly within a relatively small geographic area.
The high percentages of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at these schools, ranging from 65.1% at Red Oak Middle to 98.72% at Coker-Wimberly Elementary, indicate that the schools serve economically disadvantaged communities. The lower academic performance at schools with higher percentages of economically disadvantaged students highlights the need for targeted interventions and additional resources to support these schools and their students.
