Summary

Stanhope Elmore High School in Millbrook, AL, serves approximately 1,123 students in grades 9-12 as part of the Elmore County school district, holding a consistent 4-star rating while ranking 100th out of 380 Alabama high schools in the most recent 2025-2026 school year.

Stanhope Elmore presents a mixed academic picture. The school's math proficiency (31.89%) actually exceeds both district and state averages, though it trails nearby Holtville High School (39.29%) and Wetumpka High School (37.20%). English and science scores sit below district averages, and test performance has shown notable year-to-year swings—English proficiency dropped from 49% to 30% between 2022-2024 before recovering to 43%. The school's graduation rate of 84.5% trails both the district (87.1%) and state (91.5%) averages, a gap that has persisted for five years. However, there's encouraging news: chronic absenteeism fell dramatically from 22.6% to 13.1% in a single year, nearly matching district and state levels. The school also serves a student body where about 52% qualify for free or reduced lunch, a higher economic need than its district peers.

Stanhope Elmore shows notable strengths in specific areas. The school has consistently ranked in the 80th-93rd percentile statewide for supporting its African American students over three consecutive years, and special education outcomes have remained strong (84th-92nd percentile range). The school also demonstrates efficient resource use, spending $9,164 per student—less than Holtville ($10,352) while achieving comparable results. The recent drop from 58th to 100th statewide appears driven by broad-based declines across subjects and subgroups. While Percy Julian High School and Carver Senior High School in Montgomery County rank in the bottom tier of Alabama schools, Stanhope Elmore maintains a competitive position within its district, though it will need to stabilize test scores and improve graduation rates to keep pace with Holtville and Wetumpka.
