Summary

Abbeville Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-6 in Abbeville, Alabama, with 374 students. The school is part of the Henry County School District, which is ranked 90 out of 135 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Unfortunately, Abbeville Elementary has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Alabama elementary schools, receiving a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years.

Abbeville Elementary's academic performance is a significant concern, with only 17.5% of 3rd graders proficient or better in math, compared to 44.62% in Henry County and 45.47% statewide. This pattern of underperformance holds true across all grade levels and subject areas. The school also struggles with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 12.1% to 19.2% over the past few years, well above the state average. Additionally, the school has a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 82.62% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, which likely contributes to the academic challenges.

Interestingly, Abbeville Elementary's performance is significantly lower than that of Headland Elementary, another school in the same district that is ranked much higher (234 out of 680 Alabama elementary schools in 2024-2025). This suggests that the challenges facing Abbeville Elementary may be specific to the school rather than the broader district. However, the school's special education students performed relatively well, ranking 188 out of 398 Alabama elementary schools in the 2020-2021 school year, which is a bright spot for the school.
