Summary

Boaz High School serves approximately 721 students in grades 9-12 within the Boaz City district, a mid-tier system ranked 63rd out of 139 districts in Alabama. The school itself holds a 3-star rating and ranks 167th out of 380 high schools statewide, placing it in the 56th percentile. With about 65% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, the school serves a community with significant economic need, yet it still manages to outperform most of its immediate neighbors in core academics.

In math and English, Boaz is a clear standout among nearby schools. Its 11th-grade math proficiency rate of 25.77% is more than double that of Crossville High School (11.35%) and over nine times higher than Asbury High School (2.86%). English proficiency has more than doubled in two years, jumping from 14.88% to 31.85%, nearly matching the state average. Only Guntersville High School and Albertville High School outperform Boaz in these subjects. The school also shows notable strengths with its Hispanic students, whose ranking jumped from the 29th to 51st percentile, and with low-income students, who perform at the 61st percentile—a relative bright spot given the school's resource constraints.

However, parents should be aware of significant challenges. Chronic absenteeism is a critical concern, with 27.4% of students chronically absent—more than double the state average of 12.0% and nearly double the district's own rate of 14.9%. This appears to be a high-school-specific issue. Science proficiency (28.22%) also lags the state average (36.17%), and graduation rates have been volatile, ranging from 84.5% to 92.1% in recent years. Support for homeless students is a notable gap, ranking near the bottom among comparable schools. The contrast with Guntersville High School, just 11 miles away, is instructive: Guntersville spends significantly more per student ($13,692 vs. $10,081) and posts higher scores across all subjects, suggesting additional resources could help Boaz close the gap with top regional performers.
