Summary

Elmore County High School in Eclectic, AL, serves approximately 494 students in grades 9-12 and is part of the Elmore County district, which ranks in the top third of Alabama districts. The school has earned a 4-star rating from the state for several consecutive years, with its most recent ranking placing it at 89th out of 367 high schools statewide (77th percentile).

The most impressive story here is graduation. Elmore County High School boasts a 96.3% graduation rate—well above the district average of 87.1% and the state average of 91.5%. This is especially notable given that a third of the student body qualifies for free or reduced lunch. The school also shines in English and science, with 11th graders scoring 44.7% proficient in English (11 points above the state average) and 42.5% proficient in science (6 points above the state). Perhaps most remarkably, the school ranked in the 95th percentile statewide for academic performance among economically disadvantaged students in 2024-2025, demonstrating that students from all backgrounds are achieving at high levels here.

Compared to nearby schools, Elmore County holds its own in several key areas. Its graduation rate far exceeds Wetumpka High School's 87.1% and Holtville High School's 89.3%, even though those schools currently rank higher overall. Elmore County also outperforms Pike Road High School in English proficiency (44.7% vs. 41.9%) despite serving a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students. The main area for growth is math, where proficiency (26.1%) trails the district average. Additionally, chronic absenteeism (15.4%) is slightly above state norms, and performance for special education students has been inconsistent in recent years. Still, for parents seeking a school that combines strong academics with exceptional student retention and equity, Elmore County High School is a standout choice.
