Summary

Huxford Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Atmore, Alabama, serving grades K-6 with a total enrollment of 267 students. The school is part of the Escambia County School District, which is ranked 86 out of 135 districts in Alabama and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Huxford Elementary has maintained a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years, indicating average academic performance compared to other schools in the state. The school's test scores are generally lower than the Escambia County and Alabama state averages across various grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 51.16% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 46.25% in Escambia County and 45.47% statewide. Huxford Elementary has also experienced high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 14.8% to 28.2% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state's average.

Interestingly, Huxford Elementary's performance is generally lower than the nearby Flomaton Elementary School, which is also part of the Escambia County School District. Flomaton Elementary has consistently higher test scores, lower chronic absenteeism rates, and a lower percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. Additionally, Huxford Elementary's spending per student ($10,287 in 2018-2019) is slightly higher than Flomaton Elementary School ($9,375 in 2018-2019), but it is unclear how this additional spending is translating into improved academic outcomes.
