Summary:
The city of Corinth, Mississippi is home to three high schools: Corinth High School, Kossuth High School, and Biggersville High School. These schools serve students in grades 9-12 and are part of the Corinth School District and the Alcorn School District.
Among the three high schools, Kossuth High School stands out as the top performer, ranking 39th out of 232 Mississippi high schools with a 4-star rating. Kossuth consistently achieves high proficiency rates on state assessments, with over 80% in Algebra I, 70% in Biology, and 75% in U.S. History. The school also has a relatively low chronic absenteeism rate of 23.9% and a strong 89.4% four-year graduation rate. In contrast, Corinth High School and Biggersville High School have lower statewide rankings and more mixed academic performance, with 1-star ratings from SchoolDigger.
Across all three high schools, the chronic absenteeism rate is around 24%, which is on the higher side and may be an area for improvement. Additionally, the schools have varying levels of economic disadvantage, with Corinth High School having the highest percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients at 59.94%, followed by Biggersville High School at 67.32% and Kossuth High School at 49.51%. These factors may play a role in the schools' academic performance and could require targeted support and resources.
