What the reported data says about Henderson High
Henderson High is a public high school serving grades 06–12 in Salisbury. It is one of 32 current school records connected to Rowan-Salisbury Schools. NCES reports 71 students for 2024–25.
Among 617 high schools in North Carolina with comparable records, this school is smaller than the reported median of 623 students. Its enrollment is at approximately the 8th percentile for that peer group. Size describes the campus, not instructional quality.
The reported student–teacher ratio is 10.2:1, below the North Carolina median of 18.3:1 for the same school level. This ratio uses total enrollment and teacher FTE; it is not an average classroom headcount and can be affected by special programs or part-time staffing.
The two largest reported race and ethnicity groups are Black (53.5%) and White (21.1%). Students served under IDEA represent 7.1%. These figures help families understand who the school serves; they are not rating inputs.
The 2021–22 civil-rights collection reports access to gifted and talented programming. Program availability changes, so families should confirm the current catalog and participation rules directly with the school.
