There were 2,105 students enrolled in Thomasville City Schools in the 2023-24 school year, 1% less than the previous year, according to the North Carolina Department of Public Instruction.

Thomasville City Schools roughly covers four schools within Davidson County and has a main office in Thomasville.

Among the four schools in Thomasville City Schools, Thomasville Primary School recorded the highest enrollment of 687 students in the 2023-24 school year.

North Carolina’s student-teacher ratio is roughly 15.4 students per teacher, aligning with the national average. However, rising teacher turnover threatens to push class sizes higher, making it harder for students to get individualized attention.

If vacancies continue to grow, schools may struggle to maintain this ratio, impacting the quality of instruction. Districts in lower-funded areas face the biggest challenges, as limited budgets make it harder to attract and retain teachers.
