Jackson County

Summary:

The schools in Jackson County, Alabama consist of 16 institutions, including 8 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, 1 high school, and 5 alternative schools. The data reveals a mix of high-performing and struggling schools, with some standouts like Dutton Elementary School and Bridgeport Middle School ranking among the top schools in the state.

The four-year graduation rate across the district is 90%, which is higher than the state average. However, the chronic absenteeism rate is a concern at 14.8%. Test scores vary significantly, with some schools, such as Skyline High School and Dutton Elementary School, outperforming the county and state averages, while others struggle. The data also reveals a potential correlation between socioeconomic status, as measured by free/reduced lunch rates, and academic performance.

The alternative schools in the district, like Skyline High School, demonstrate that with the right support and resources, students in non-traditional settings can achieve high levels of academic success. The data suggests that middle schools, particularly Bridgeport Middle School, play a crucial role in preparing students for high school success. Overall, the data highlights both areas of strength and opportunities for improvement within the Jackson County school district.
