Summary

Maryvale Elementary School is a public elementary school in Mobile, Alabama, serving 451 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Mobile County School District, which is ranked 94 out of 135 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. Maryvale Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Alabama elementary schools, with a ranking between 576-660 out of 680-692 schools over the past 10 years, and has received a 0 or 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Maryvale Elementary faces significant challenges in terms of academic performance, student engagement, and supporting its diverse student population. The school consistently performs significantly below the Mobile County and Alabama state averages in proficiency rates for both Math and English Language Arts (ELA) across all grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 7.69% of 3rd graders at Maryvale were proficient in Math, compared to 36.88% in Mobile County and 45.47% statewide. Maryvale Elementary also has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 2.6% to 31.5% over the past few years, which is well above the state average.

When comparing Maryvale Elementary to other nearby schools in the Mobile County district, it is clear that Maryvale is an outlier in terms of academic performance. For example, W.H. Council Traditional School and EicholdMertz School of Math and Science, both magnet schools in the district, consistently rank in the top 5-17 schools in the state and have significantly higher proficiency rates than Maryvale. Maryvale Elementary has struggled to improve its performance over the past 10 years, with its statewide ranking and star rating remaining stagnant or declining, suggesting that the school may be facing systemic challenges that have not been adequately addressed.
