Summary

Boaz Intermediate School is a public elementary school serving grades 4-5 in Boaz, Alabama, part of the Boaz City School District. With 374 students, the school has consistently performed above the state average in English/Language Arts and math, with 65.91% of 4th graders and 66.67% of 5th graders proficient or better in 2024-2025.

Boaz Intermediate School excels for certain student subgroups, ranking 29th out of 427 Alabama elementary schools for African American students, 51st out of 206 for Hispanic students, and 9th out of 53 for Native American students in 2024-2025. However, the school struggles with chronic absenteeism, which has risen from 6.9% in 2020-2021 to 14.8% in 2023-2024. Additionally, a high percentage (80.75% in 2023-2024) of students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively low socioeconomic status of the student population.

Compared to other schools in the Boaz City district, Boaz Intermediate School performs better on most academic metrics, particularly in English/Language Arts. However, it lags behind some higher-performing schools in the surrounding Etowah County district, such as Whitesboro Elementary. Continued focus on improving attendance and addressing the needs of all learners could help the school further enhance its academic outcomes.
