Summary:
The 28364 zip code area in North Carolina is home to 4 schools, including 3 elementary schools and 1 high school, all serving the students of the Public Schools of Robeson County district. The data reveals stark disparities in academic performance among these schools, with some standouts and others struggling to meet the needs of their predominantly low-income student populations.
Prospect Elementary and Oxendine Elementary are the top-performing schools in the area, outperforming the district and state averages in several subject areas, including 3rd-8th grade math and reading. In contrast, Townsend Elementary struggles, particularly in 3rd-5th grade math and reading, while Purnell Swett High has relatively low proficiency rates in End-of-Course (EOC) exams.
The data also reveals that all schools in the 28364 zip code area serve predominantly low-income communities, with student eligibility for free or reduced-price lunch ranging from 98.91% to 99.63%. This suggests that the schools face significant challenges in addressing the unique needs of their student populations, and targeted interventions and support may be necessary to help close the achievement gaps and provide equitable educational opportunities.
