Summary

Collinsville High School is an alternative public school serving grades PK-12 in Collinsville, Alabama, part of the DeKalb County school district. With 886 students, the school has seen strong graduation rates ranging from 88.2% to 98.4% in recent years, outpacing the state average. However, it also struggles with higher-than-average dropout rates of 5.4% to 6.3% and alarmingly high chronic absenteeism rates of 9.4% to 18.9%.

Academically, Collinsville High School consistently underperforms the state and district averages on standardized tests across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in 2024-2025, only 8.82% of 11th graders were proficient or better in math, compared to 16.56% in the district and 23.71% statewide. This poor academic performance is concerning given the school's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 15.2 to 17.2 and significantly higher per-student spending of $16,213 in 2018-2019, well above the state average. The school's demographics, with an extremely high percentage of 87-88% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, likely play a role in these challenges.

Compared to nearby schools in the Cherokee County and Etowah County districts, Collinsville High School generally underperforms on most metrics, including test scores, graduation rates, and chronic absenteeism. This suggests the school faces unique challenges that the other schools in the area do not. Addressing the high chronic absenteeism, low test scores, and needs of the economically disadvantaged student population should be priorities for the school and district.
