Summary

Elsanor School is a small elementary school in Robertsdale, AL, serving 375 students in grades PK-6 as part of the highly-rated Baldwin County school district.

What truly sets Elsanor apart is its remarkable success with students who often face the biggest challenges. The school ranks in the 72nd percentile for low-income students and the 76th percentile for special education students—both significantly higher than its overall 61st percentile ranking. This means that despite having a higher poverty rate (50.4% free/reduced lunch) than nearby schools like Stonebridge Elementary (13.87%) or Belforest Elementary (23.95%), Elsanor achieves results comparable to or better than schools with similar demographics, such as Loxley Elementary and Rosinton School. The school also maintains a lower student-teacher ratio (14.5) than most nearby schools, which likely supports its ability to provide targeted help where it's needed most.

Another standout feature is the school's unusual academic growth pattern. Unlike many schools where scores decline in upper grades, Elsanor students actually improve as they advance. Math proficiency rises from 46.81% in 3rd grade to 52.83% by 6th grade, while English jumps from 61.7% to 71.7%. The upper grades are particularly strong—5th and 6th-grade scores in both subjects exceed both state and district averages, with 6th-grade math at 52.83% versus the district's 44.41%. One area parents might want to watch is a persistent gender gap, with female students ranking in the 65th percentile compared to males at the 56th percentile. Also, because the school is small, performance can swing noticeably from year to year based on individual class cohorts—for example, 5th-grade math proficiency ranged from 25.64% to 50% over two years. Overall, Elsanor offers a unique blend of strong support for vulnerable students and excellent upper-grade preparation, making it a compelling option for families seeking an equitable, growth-focused elementary experience.
