Elementary Schools in Enterprise City

The Enterprise City school district in Alabama is home to six elementary schools serving approximately 3,383 students in grades K-6, with one school also offering Pre-K, and the district itself ranks in the 85th percentile statewide.

For parents, the standout school is Holly Hill Elementary School, which earns a 5-star rating and ranks 58th statewide—the best in the district. It achieves top academic scores across math, English, and science while spending the least per student ($6,904) and maintaining a higher student-teacher ratio, showing remarkable efficiency. In contrast, Rucker Boulevard Elementary School is the attendance champion with a chronic absenteeism rate of just 0.1%, far better than the district average of 8.4%, though its academic performance is mid-tier. Hillcrest Elementary School is also improving, jumping from 139th to 107th statewide, while Brookwood Elementary School has declined from a 5-star to a 4-star rating, dropping from 63rd to 109th. Harrand Creek Elementary School remains the lowest-ranked (330th) but shows upward momentum despite serving the highest percentage of economically disadvantaged students (77.95% free/reduced lunch). Pinedale Elementary School struggles with the worst attendance (12.0% chronic absenteeism) and declining rankings, dropping from 160th to 232nd.

District-wide, students perform well above state averages in every subject and grade, with the largest gap in 6th-grade math (64.08% vs. 35.22% statewide). Fourth-grade science is a particular strength, led by Holly Hill's 86.36% proficiency. However, there is a clear socioeconomic achievement gap: the two highest-performing schools have the lowest poverty rates, while the lowest-performing school has the highest. Notably, Rucker Boulevard outperforms Pinedale despite similar poverty levels, suggesting its exceptional attendance helps mitigate challenges. The district also shows a spending-achievement disconnect—Rucker Boulevard spends the most ($9,825 per student) yet achieves only mid-tier results, while Holly Hill spends the least and excels. For parents, this means school choice matters significantly, with Holly Hill offering the strongest academics, Rucker Boulevard the best attendance culture, and Harrand Creek showing promise despite its challenges.
