Summary

Andalusia High School serves approximately 471 students in grades 9-12 in Andalusia, Alabama, as part of the Andalusia City school district, which ranks in the top 20% of districts statewide.

Andalusia High School is showing strong positive momentum. After a challenging 2023-2024 school year, the school has improved its statewide ranking for two consecutive years, now sitting at 104th out of roughly 370 high schools (73rd percentile) with a 4-star rating. One of the most impressive recent developments is a dramatic reduction in chronic absenteeism—cut from 23.1% to 11.1% in a single year, nearly closing the gap with the district rate. The school also excels in mathematics, with 11th-grade proficiency rates exceeding state averages every year since 2022. Female students have shown remarkable gains, jumping from the 66th to the 84th percentile statewide in just two years. However, this improvement has created a significant gender gap, with male students ranking in only the 55th percentile. English Language Arts remains a persistent weakness, with proficiency rates about 6.5 points below the state average, despite strong science performance.

Compared to nearby Opp High School (13.8 miles away), Andalusia trails in overall ranking (104th vs. 70th) and math proficiency (31.5% vs. 45.6%), but leads in chronic absenteeism (11.1% vs. 19.0%) and maintains a better student-teacher ratio (13.9:1 vs. 15.5:1). Against Straughn High School (6.1 miles away), Andalusia lags significantly in English proficiency (27.2% vs. 39.6%) and graduation rate (95.8% vs. 98.9%), though it offers smaller class sizes. The school's most pressing equity challenge involves Special Education students, who have ranked in the bottom 7-11% statewide for three consecutive years. With 58% of students qualifying for free/reduced lunch, the school's overall performance outpaces expectations given its economic profile, though outcomes for low-income students declined notably in the most recent year.
