Conecuh County Junior High School

Public Grades PK, KG-5

Summary

Conecuh County Junior High School is a small, rural PK-8 school in Castleberry, AL, serving 118 students within the Conecuh County district.

The most impressive thing about this school is its students' attendance. Only 5% of students were chronically absent in the 2024-2025 school year—far better than the district average of 12.6% and the state average of 12%. This is a consistent strength, with the school beating state averages for four straight years. That's especially notable given that over 70% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school also shows a clear bright spot in 6th grade, where math proficiency (23%) nearly doubles the district rate (12%), and English proficiency (46%) far exceeds the district's 28%. Overall, the school tends to perform better in English than in math, though its state ranking has declined over the past decade, now sitting in the bottom 20% of Alabama schools.

Compared to nearby schools, the gap is striking. Just 18 miles away, PollardMcCall Junior High School in the Escambia County district is a 3-star school with 4th-grade math proficiency at 50%, versus just 18.75% at Conecuh County. Even within its own district, Evergreen Elementary School and Lyeffion Junior High School spend less per student yet achieve similar or better results. One area of concern is the performance of male students, who rank in the bottom 5% statewide—a significant drop from past years. Still, the school's strong attendance culture provides a solid foundation to build on for academic improvement.
