Summary

Ida Greene Elementary School is a public elementary school in Belzoni, Mississippi, serving 375 students in grades K-4. The school is part of the Humphreys County School District, which is ranked 128 out of 130 school districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Ida Greene Elementary School faces significant challenges, including consistently high chronic absenteeism rates, well-below-average academic performance, and a 100% free and reduced lunch rate, indicating that all students come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 14% of 3rd-grade students and 10.6% of 4th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state averages of 49.4% and 52.1%, respectively. The school's performance in mathematics is also significantly lower than the state averages. In comparison, nearby schools like S.V. Marshall Elementary School and Moorhead Central School have significantly higher academic performance.

The high chronic absenteeism rates at Ida Greene Elementary School may be a contributing factor to the school's poor academic performance, and the 100% free and reduced lunch rate suggests that the school serves a population facing significant socioeconomic challenges. Addressing these issues will require a comprehensive approach, including targeted interventions, additional resources, and collaboration with the broader community and district leadership.
