Summary:

The four high schools in Alabama's St Clair County district—Springville High School, Moody High School, Saint Clair County High School, and Ashville High School—serve grades 9-12 and enroll a combined 2,523 students in this suburban-rural area east of Birmingham.

Springville High School is the clear academic standout, ranking 41st in the state (89th percentile) with the district's best test scores—51.19% English proficiency and 47.34% science proficiency—while spending the least per student ($8,747) and having the lowest poverty rate (21.76% free/reduced lunch). Its 94.5% graduation rate also leads the district. Moody High School excels at attendance, with a remarkable 6.3% chronic absenteeism rate (half the state average) and strong academics, including 31.91% math proficiency and a 92.5% graduation rate. Saint Clair County High School showed the most dramatic improvement, jumping 151 spots in state rankings after a difficult previous year, though it still trails district averages in math (21.15%) and science (37.18%). Ashville High School presents the most concerning picture: despite spending the most per student ($13,515) and having the highest poverty rate (52.91%), it posts the lowest English proficiency (23.08%) and graduation rate (84.1%), and its state ranking has declined from 88th to 182nd over two years.

Key takeaways for parents: Springville offers the best combination of academics, graduation rates, and efficiency, though its low poverty rate likely contributes to its success. Moody provides excellent attendance and solid performance at a reasonable cost. Saint Clair County is improving rapidly but still has room to grow. Ashville, despite significant per-student investment, struggles across most metrics and may need targeted interventions. District-wide, science proficiency (38.28%) is a relative strength compared to math (26.48%), and chronic absenteeism at Saint Clair County (16.9%) is nearly triple Moody's rate, highlighting attendance as a critical factor in student success.
