Summary

Warrior Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 567 students in grades PK-5 in Warrior, Alabama, which is part of the Jefferson County school district. Despite the district's overall ranking of 101 out of 135 in the state and a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger, Warrior Elementary consistently outperforms the district and state averages on standardized test scores across multiple grade levels and subjects.

For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 47.83% of 3rd graders at Warrior Elementary were proficient or better in math, compared to 31.25% for Jefferson County and 45.47% for the state. The school also performs well compared to state averages for various student subgroups, ranking 134th out of 532 Alabama elementary schools for White students and 163rd out of 427 for African American students in math proficiency. While Warrior Elementary has seen fluctuations in chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 12.7% to 17.9%, these rates are generally lower than the district and state averages.

When compared to nearby schools in the Jefferson County district, Warrior Elementary School generally outperforms its peers, particularly in academic achievement. For example, Erwin Intermediate School and Kermit Johnson School have significantly lower test scores and rankings than Warrior Elementary. However, the school's high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 52.56% to 66.98%, indicates that it serves a population with significant economic challenges, which may contribute to the school's chronic absenteeism rates and require additional support and resources to address.
