School Report Card

October 21, 2025

Dear Parents and Friends of Marshville Elementary School,

Thank you for taking the time to learn more about the North Carolina School Report Card and Marshville Elementary! Once a year we provide you with updates on our school’s achievements through the North Carolina School Report Card. Indicators reported in our report card include school and student performance, class size, student attendance, school safety, instructional resources, and teacher quality. Report card data will be available for each school, for each school district, and for the state’s educational system as a whole.

Marshville Elementary currently maintains our School Performance Grade of a C at 65%.   Our overall growth is 86.7%, which resulted in "Exceeded" for growth expectations by the state. Marshville has exceeded growth for two years in a row. In math, we were a "B" for our performance grade showing growth at 89.8%.

Test scores are one way to measure accountability and success, there are many other indicators of school quality that are important to parents and community members. At Marshville Elementary School, we are proud of the levels of intervention that we are able to provide to support student success and academic growth. Our staff is committed to providing quality, rigorous instruction each and every day and to developing a strong, academic foundation with success for all students. 

We continue the implementation of a STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Math) classroom this year where students have the opportunity to be involved in a wide variety of hands-on learning projects. This year, we have become an AgTech school. We have a teacher who focuses on AgTech related activities preparing students for a future in farming, data, robotics, and technology.   Additionally, we have expanded our DLI (Dual Language Immersion) Instructional Program in Spanish and English to include kindergarten through fifth grade. 

At Marshville Elementary, we focus on preparing students to be lifelong learners. Students learn to be readers, problem-solvers, and creative thinkers who are ready for the future and prepared to be productive citizens in the 21st century. We work to grow and empower all students so that they exemplify the characteristics of a portrait of a UCPS graduate. 

We are in our third year of implementation of the Ron Clark House System. We implement hands-on strategies learned from the Ron Clark Academy to improve instruction and increase engagement. We focus on building a sense of community while promoting student leadership. 

Thank you for allowing us to share our annual report card with you and thank you for supporting our efforts to provide our children with a high-quality, twenty-first-century education. We look forward to continuing to grow in our success throughout the 2025-2026 school year!   

Sincerely, 

Courtney Luce, Principal
