Summary

Asbury Elementary School in Albertville, AL, serves 729 students from Pre-K through 5th grade within the Marshall County school district, a rural area where the school has earned a 1-star rating and ranks in the bottom 20% of Alabama elementary schools.

Academically, Asbury faces significant challenges, with proficiency rates roughly half to one-third of state averages across most subjects. In 2025-2026, only 11.6% of 5th graders were proficient in math (compared to 39.1% statewide), and 3rd grade English proficiency stood at 32.3% versus 64.8% statewide. The school also trails nearby schools dramatically—Cherokee Elementary School in Guntersville achieves 56.7-71.1% math proficiency, while Kate D Smith DAR Intermediate School, the only other Marshall County school in the comparison, outperforms Asbury by 18-34 percentage points in English. Performance has declined over the past three years, particularly in 5th grade math, which dropped 25 points since 2022-2023. The school also spends less per student ($7,595) than nearby schools like Boaz Elementary School ($11,138) and Guntersville Elementary School ($10,969), which may limit resources.

Despite these struggles, Asbury has a notable strength: chronic absenteeism is just 4.4%, far below the 12.0% state average and lower than most nearby schools, including Boaz Intermediate School (10.1%) and Albertville Primary School (12.5%). This suggests strong family engagement around attendance, even as instructional quality appears to lag. With 73% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, the school faces economic challenges, but its attendance success shows that families are committed—pointing to a need for targeted academic interventions, especially in math, rather than attendance-based solutions.
