Summary:

The Morgan County school district in Alabama consists of 16 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 5 high schools, serving students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. The district is ranked 50 out of 137 districts in the state and is rated 3 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Several schools stand out in the district, including Priceville Elementary School, which ranks 81 out of 684 elementary schools in Alabama and is rated 4 out of 5 stars. It has strong test scores, with over 80% of 3rd and 4th graders proficient in English, and a relatively low free/reduced lunch rate of 38.68%. Another top performer is Eva School, a PK-8 school that ranks 91 out of 684 elementary schools and is also rated 4 out of 5 stars. It has exceptional test scores, with over 75% of 3rd and 4th graders proficient in math and English, despite a higher free/reduced lunch rate of 63.88%. The district's standout middle school is Priceville Junior High School, which ranks 22 out of 442 middle schools in Alabama and is rated 5 out of 5 stars.

However, the data also reveals stark differences in academic performance across the Morgan County district, with some schools significantly outperforming others. This appears to be correlated with socioeconomic status, as measured by free/reduced lunch rates. The district may need to address these equity concerns and work to ensure more consistent quality across all its schools.
