Summary

Delta Elementary School is a small, rural school in Bay Minette, AL, serving 228 students in grades PK through 6 as part of the Baldwin County School District.

Delta Elementary is in the middle of a remarkable turnaround. After several years of middling performance, the school made dramatic gains in the most recent school year, jumping from the 48th percentile to the 66th percentile statewide. This improvement is visible across nearly every grade and subject. For example, 4th grade math proficiency more than doubled, and 5th grade English proficiency reached 86%, which is well above both district and state averages. The school is particularly effective with its economically disadvantaged students, ranking in the 75th percentile for that group—a notable strength given that nearly half of its students receive free or reduced lunch. Chronic absenteeism has also dropped significantly, from 18.4% to 10.4%, which is now below both district and state averages.

While Delta's raw scores don't match its more affluent neighbors like Rockwell Elementary or Spanish Fort Elementary, it significantly outperforms schools with similar demographics, such as Pine Grove Elementary and Bay Minette Elementary. The one area of concern is 5th grade math, where only 13.79% of students are proficient—a sharp drop from the 3rd and 4th grade levels. This suggests a possible curriculum transition issue at that grade. Overall, Delta's trajectory is promising, and its recent gains suggest the school is heading in the right direction.
