Summary

Elberta High School is a public high school in Elberta, AL, serving 735 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Baldwin County school district. This smaller school has earned a solid 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for six consecutive years and currently ranks in the 83rd percentile statewide (rank 64 out of 380) for the 2025-2026 school year.

What truly sets Elberta apart is its exceptional success with students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. In the 2024-2025 school year, the school ranked in the 92nd percentile statewide for this subgroup, earning a 5-star rating. This is particularly impressive when compared to nearby Foley High School, which serves a similar demographic (59.5% free/reduced lunch vs. Elberta's 46.7%) but does not show the same level of subgroup success. Elberta also demonstrates a unique strength in mathematics, with 42.11% of 11th graders proficient in math—15 percentage points higher than the state average. This math proficiency is nearly double Foley's rate (26.79%) and also exceeds the district average. Additionally, the school has made dramatic progress in reducing chronic absenteeism, dropping from 26.5% in 2021-2022 to 16.0% in 2024-2025—a nearly 40% reduction over three years.

While Fairhope High School (17.87 miles away) outperforms Elberta academically, it serves a much more affluent population (21.94% free/reduced lunch). Similarly, Gulf Shores High School and Orange Beach MiddleHigh School are top-tier performers but have significantly lower rates of economic disadvantage. Elberta's graduation rate of 90.5% is competitive, and its upward trajectory in state ranking (from 78th to 83rd percentile) suggests a school actively improving. For parents seeking a high-value option in the Baldwin County area, Elberta offers a more personalized environment due to its smaller size, achieves better outcomes than its closest demographic peer, and significantly outperforms state averages—making it a strong mid-tier choice worth serious consideration.
