Best Public Schools in Castleberry, AL

Summary:

The city of Castleberry, Alabama has only one school in the data set - Conecuh County Junior High School, an elementary school serving grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 107 students. The school is part of the Conecuh County school district, which is ranked 114 out of 135 districts in the state of Alabama and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Conecuh County Junior High School consistently underperforms the Conecuh County district and the state of Alabama in academic proficiency across various grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 4th grade Mathematics, the school's proficiency rate is 18.75% compared to the Conecuh County average of 23.23% and the Alabama average of 41.76%. Similarly, in 6th grade Mathematics, the school's proficiency rate is 23.08% compared to the Conecuh County average of 12.12% and the Alabama average of 33.97%. The school also has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 14.8% and a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at 82.24%.

Despite the relatively high spending per student of $13,005 in the 2018-2019 school year and a student-teacher ratio of 13.3 to 1, the school's academic performance remains low compared to the district and state. This raises questions about the effective allocation and utilization of resources within the school and the broader Conecuh County district, and the need to address the root causes of the school's challenges, such as socioeconomic factors or school climate issues, in order to improve educational outcomes for the students.
