Summary

Mount Olive Intermediate School is a public elementary school serving grades 3-5 in Fort Mitchell, Alabama, with 337 students. The school is part of the Russell County School District, which is ranked 93 out of 135 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Mount Olive Intermediate School has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, currently at #370 out of around 680-690 Alabama elementary schools. The school's academic performance is mixed, with students performing relatively well in English language arts but struggling in mathematics compared to district and state averages. Notably, Mount Olive Intermediate School outperforms the other Russell County elementary schools in most academic areas, particularly in English language arts. However, when compared to the higher-performing Phenix City elementary schools, such as Lakewood Elementary and Sherwood Elementary, Mount Olive lags behind significantly in both mathematics and English language arts proficiency.

The school faces some concerning trends, including a steady increase in chronic absenteeism, rising from 7.9% in 2020-2021 to 14.8% in 2023-2024. Additionally, the percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Mount Olive has increased from 50% in 2021-2022 to 68.73% in 2022-2023, suggesting the school serves a predominantly low-income population. While the strong performance of African American and Hispanic students at Mount Olive is noteworthy, the poor performance of students with special education needs and military-connected students is concerning and warrants further investigation.
