Summary:

The Midfield City school district in Alabama consists of 3 schools - Midfield Elementary School, Midfield High School, and Rutledge School. Unfortunately, the data paints a concerning picture, as all 3 schools are performing well below state averages across a variety of key metrics.

According to the data, none of the Midfield City schools can be considered standouts. All 3 schools are ranked in the bottom quartile of their respective school types in the state, with Midfield Elementary and Midfield High School ranked 658th and 369th out of 680 and 374 schools, respectively. The Midfield City school district as a whole is ranked 134th out of 135 districts in the state and is rated 0 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

The poor performance extends to academic measures as well.
