Summary

TR Miller High School in Brewton, AL, serves 373 students in grades 9-12 and is part of the highly-rated Brewton City district, which ranks in the top 15% of districts statewide.

TR Miller consistently outperforms state averages across all subjects, with particularly strong results in Science and English—recent proficiency rates were 48.65% and 43.24%, respectively, compared to state averages of 36.17% and 33.73%. The school also boasts an exceptional 97.5% graduation rate, well above the state average of 91.5%. What makes this even more impressive is that over half of the student body qualifies for free or reduced lunch, yet the school achieves strong results across all student subgroups, including low-income students, who ranked in the 89th percentile statewide. The school has also made remarkable progress in reducing chronic absenteeism, cutting its rate from 28.2% to 12.3% over three years—now matching the state average.

The contrast with nearby W S Neal High School, located just 3.45 miles away but serving the Escambia County district, is striking. TR Miller ranks 72nd statewide (81st percentile) while W S Neal ranks 260th (32nd percentile). Graduation rates differ by 8.4 percentage points, and chronic absenteeism at W S Neal (32.9%) is nearly triple TR Miller's rate. Even Flomaton High School has a chronic absenteeism rate of 24.1%, double TR Miller's. Despite similar per-student spending across these schools, TR Miller's outcomes are dramatically better, suggesting effective resource allocation and school culture make the difference. While the most recent ranking dipped from 25th to 72nd, the school's test scores still exceed state averages, and its track record of improvement suggests it has the capacity to rebound.
