Summary

Redland Elementary School in Wetumpka, AL, is a highly regarded Pre-K through 4th grade school serving 730 students in the Elmore County district, consistently earning a 4-star rating and ranking in the top 20% of Alabama elementary schools for over a decade.

Redland stands out for its exceptional academic performance, outpacing both district and state averages in every subject and grade level. In the most recent testing, 90% of 3rd graders were proficient in English and 71% in math—roughly 26 percentage points above state averages. The school also excels in supporting African American students, ranking in the top 7% statewide (30th out of 429 schools). When compared to nearby Wetumpka Elementary, Redland's 3rd grade English proficiency is 90% versus 64%, and its math proficiency is 71% versus 41%. Even against Pike Road Elementary—located in a higher-ranked district—Redland posts stronger 3rd grade scores. The school also boasts a low chronic absenteeism rate of 9.8%, far better than many area schools like Dalraida Elementary (17.7%) or Chisholm Elementary (20.8%), which likely contributes to its strong outcomes.

While Redland's overall performance is impressive, there are areas for growth. The school's special education students have consistently scored around the 50th percentile statewide, and performance with low-income students has declined in recent years. Additionally, 4th grade math proficiency (48%) lags behind 3rd grade (71%), suggesting a possible challenge in math progression. The school's free/reduced lunch rate dropped dramatically from 40% to 26% in one year, reflecting a changing community profile. Despite a higher student-teacher ratio (19.7:1) than many peers, Redland's results demonstrate effective instruction and strong family engagement, making it a standout choice for families in the Wetumpka area.

My child really enjoys attending this school and I love having him there. The school received a high safety rating so I don't worry much about strangers walking in off of the street or having dangerous things happen there. The teachers are great and seem to really enjoy working there. There is a new principal this year but I have not had any issues with the change so far. Would really recommend this school for anyone moving to the Wetumpka area. Grades K-6. Close Quote
