Summary

Bibb County High School in Centreville, AL, serves approximately 428 students in grades 9-12 and is part of the Bibb County school district. The school currently holds a 2-star rating, ranking 247th out of 380 Alabama high schools, with about 60% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch.

Bibb County High School has experienced a notable decline in its statewide ranking over the past few years, dropping from the 55th-62nd percentile (3 stars) between 2018-2023 to the 30th-35th percentile (2 stars) more recently. Chronic absenteeism remains a significant concern at 20.7%, nearly double the state average of 12.0%, though this is a major improvement from the 42% rate seen in 2021-2022. English proficiency is the school's most critical academic weakness, with only 16.88% of 11th graders scoring proficient compared to the state average of 33.73%. However, there are encouraging signs: math proficiency more than doubled from 9.71% to 20.99% in the most recent year, and science performance has been relatively competitive with state averages.

When compared to nearby schools, the differences are revealing. West Blocton High School, located just 11.5 miles away in the same district, has overtaken Bibb County with a 3-star rating and outperforms it in all three subjects on recent assessments. West Blocton also serves a less economically disadvantaged population (43.75% vs. 59.81% free/reduced lunch) and has a higher graduation rate (92.3% vs. 87.9%). Meanwhile, Montevallo High School, located 19.6 miles away in the higher-performing Shelby County district, serves a more economically disadvantaged population (77.73% free/reduced lunch) yet achieves only modestly better results—suggesting that economic factors alone don't fully explain Bibb County's performance gap. The school's graduation rate has also declined from 90.3% in 2018-2019 to 87.9% currently, though dropout rates have improved dramatically in recent years.
