There were 6,970 students enrolled in Vance County schools in the 2022-23 school year, 0.6% more than the previous year, according to the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction.

Henderson Collegiate registered the highest enrollment among Vance County's 17 schools in the 2022-23 school year, welcoming 1,284 students.

North Carolina's public schools are facing a significant funding gap, with a per-student expenditure of $10,519 - well below the national average of $14,295.

This financial strain is further compounded by a significant challenge in staffing with a staggering 58.4% surge in vacant teaching positions in the 2021-22 school year, leaving over 5,000 classrooms without qualified instructors.
