Summary

Boaz Middle School, located in Boaz, AL, serves 583 students in grades 6 through 8 and is part of the Boaz City district, which holds a 3-star rating statewide.

Boaz Middle School has shown a strong upward trajectory in recent years, climbing from 2-star ratings in 2017-2019 to 4-star ratings from 2020-2024. The school's standout strength is 6th-grade math, where 53.89% of students are proficient—nearly 19 points above the state average and over 9 points higher than Guntersville Middle School, its top-performing regional competitor. However, there is a sharp decline in math proficiency by 7th grade, dropping to just 15.98%, which is below the state average. This pattern suggests a challenging transition in the math curriculum that parents should be aware of. In English, the school performs on par with or slightly above state averages across all grades.

Boaz Middle School excels in serving specific student groups. It ranks in the 63rd percentile for Hispanic students and has historically performed well with low-income students, ranking in the 81st percentile in 2023-2024.
