Summary

Brewton Elementary School serves 476 students in Pre-K through 4th grade in Brewton, AL, and is part of the highly-rated Brewton City district, which ranks in the 86th percentile statewide.

This school is a clear academic leader in its region, consistently outperforming state averages by significant margins. In 4th grade math, 70% of students are proficient compared to the 42% state average, and in 3rd grade English, 83% are proficient versus the 65% state average. The contrast with nearby W S Neal Elementary School, located just 2.5 miles away, is striking—Brewton's 4th grade math proficiency is nearly 29 percentage points higher. Brewton also excels with students from low-income backgrounds, ranking in the 94th percentile statewide for its effectiveness with this group, despite 52% of its students qualifying for free/reduced lunch. The school has earned a 4-star rating in 9 of the last 10 years and currently ranks 99th out of 686 Alabama elementary schools.

One of the school's most impressive achievements is its dramatic reduction in chronic absenteeism, which has dropped from 15.5% to just 8.1% over three years—far better than the 12% state average and a fraction of the 30.4% rate at W S Neal. Brewton also shows strong recent gains in male student achievement, jumping 57 positions in statewide rankings. While the school performs well across all subjects, 4th grade math saw a remarkable 25-point improvement in the most recent year, and English Language Arts proficiency has remained consistently high. The school achieves these results while spending less per student than nearby schools, demonstrating notable efficiency. For parents, this is a school that combines strong academics, improving attendance, and a proven track record of helping students succeed regardless of economic background.
