Summary

Prattville Junior High School serves 928 students in grades 7-8 within the Autauga County School District in Prattville, AL, and is the largest middle school in its immediate area—nearly double the size of most nearby schools.

This school has experienced a significant decline in its statewide ranking over the past several years. In 2018-2019, it ranked in the 92nd percentile with a 5-star rating, but by 2025-2026, it had fallen to the 58th percentile with a 3-star rating. The most dramatic drop occurred recently, between 2024-2025 and 2025-2026. While overall performance has slipped, there are notable bright spots. The school achieves exceptional results with English Language Learner students, ranking in the 95th percentile for three consecutive years, and Hispanic students also perform well, consistently earning 4-star ratings. Additionally, 8th grade math proficiency (33.25%) exceeds both district (28.85%) and state (26.36%) averages, though 7th grade math lags behind. The school has also made remarkable progress reducing chronic absenteeism from 22.5% in 2021-2022 to just 7.4% currently—better than both district and state averages.

Compared to nearby schools, Holtville Middle School in Elmore County ranks in the 82nd percentile and shows particular strength in 7th grade math (51% proficiency vs. Prattville's 20%). Within Autauga County, Marbury Middle School has shown more stability, ranking in the 60-67th percentile range over the past three years. The school's performance with low socioeconomic status students has declined markedly, dropping from the 67th to the 34th percentile in just two years, even as the percentage of students qualifying for free/reduced lunch decreased. At $6,810 per student, the school spends less than all comparable schools in the area. While the downward trajectory across most subgroups is concerning, the school's consistent success with ELL students and improved attendance provide a foundation that could be leveraged for future improvement.

This school is focusing primarily on fundraising and pep rallies. Very little attention is dedicated to the students` academic needs. The principal is very ineffective. Close Quote
