Summary:
The 28173 zip code area in North Carolina is home to 12 schools, including 7 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 3 high schools, and 1 alternative school, all part of the Union County Public Schools district. This diverse district is ranked 49 out of 243 in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Several schools in the 28173 zip code stand out as top performers, including Marvin Ridge High School, ranked 44th out of 626 high schools in North Carolina with a 5-star rating, and several highly-ranked elementary schools such as New Town Elementary, Marvin Elementary, Rea View Elementary, and Sandy Ridge Elementary, all ranked in the top 30 out of 1,502 elementary schools in the state. These top-performing schools demonstrate exceptional academic achievement, with high proficiency rates across multiple subjects and grade levels.
In contrast, the data also reveals a stark disparity in performance, particularly at South Providence, the alternative school in the area, which lags significantly behind the district and state averages. The data suggests a potential correlation between socioeconomic factors, as measured by free/reduced lunch rates, and academic performance, with the highest-performing schools generally having the lowest rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
