Alexandria Elementary School serves 712 students in Pre-K through 4th grade in Alexandria, Alabama, as part of the Calhoun County school district, and has earned a 4-star rating with a statewide rank of 140 out of 686 elementary schools.

Alexandria Elementary stands out as one of the top-performing schools in the area, with academic results that consistently exceed district and state averages. In 3rd grade, 68% of students are proficient in math and 85% are proficient in English—both far above state averages. The school also shines in 4th grade science, where 67% of students meet proficiency standards, outperforming nearby schools like Saks Elementary (25%) and Wellborn Elementary (37%). While 4th grade math scores (48%) are lower than 3rd grade math, they still beat district and state averages. The school has shown remarkable improvement this year, jumping 76 spots in statewide rankings, and has maintained strong performance for a decade, never falling below a 3-star rating.

What truly sets Alexandria Elementary apart is its success with all groups of students. The school ranks in the 97th percentile statewide for African American student achievement and in the 88th percentile for economically disadvantaged students, despite 51% of the student body qualifying for free or reduced lunch. Special education students also thrive here, ranking in the 86th percentile. Chronic absenteeism is low at 11%, and the school achieves these results while spending less per student ($8,861) than several lower-performing neighboring schools. Compared to district peers, Alexandria ranks highest in the Calhoun County system, ahead of Pleasant Valley Elementary (146th), Ohatchee Elementary (266th), and Weaver Elementary (408th).

I have had 8 grandchildren in this school for the past 15 years. The teachers are caring and pride themselves on knowing each student as an individual. They go the extra mile if a student is struggling with a subject or just needs extra attention. The staff is amazing. I sincerely cannot say enough about how pleased I am with this school. Alexandria schools do not just meet expectations, they exceed them. Close Quote

My daughter started Kindergarten at AES this year and I could not be happier! I love her teacher, the principal, and the school overall. She has learned to read in the 5 months she has been there, she even read a book to the class. I have lunch with her at least once a week and have been pleased with everything I have seen and heard at this school! I have to give this school 5 stars! Close Quote
