Summary

Inglenook School is a small elementary school serving grades PK-8 in the Birmingham City School District in Alabama. With just 308 students, the school has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Alabama elementary schools over the past several years, earning 0-1 out of 5 stars from SchoolDigger.

Inglenook faces significant challenges in terms of academic performance, with students consistently scoring well below state and district averages on standardized tests across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, only 21.88% of 3rd graders were proficient in math compared to 45.47% statewide, and just 25.81% were proficient in English compared to 65.34% statewide. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 13.6% to 23.3% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average and likely contributes to the school's poor academic performance.

While Inglenook serves a high-need population, with over 90% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the nearby Barrett Elementary, Phillips Academy, and Norwood Elementary schools generally outperform Inglenook across academic measures, despite serving similar high-need populations. This suggests that Inglenook may be struggling to implement effective instructional strategies and support systems for its students.
