Summary

Mulkey Elementary School in Geneva, AL, serves 562 students from Pre-K through 5th grade within the highly ranked Geneva City district, which holds a 4-star rating and ranks 18th out of 139 districts in Alabama. The school itself consistently earns a 4-star rating and has shown a positive trajectory in state rankings over the years, moving from the 62nd percentile in 2016-2017 to a peak of the 84th percentile in 2023-2024, before settling at the 72nd percentile in the most recent data.

Mulkey stands out in several key areas when compared to nearby schools. Most notably, its 5th-grade math program is exceptional—71.91% of students are proficient, which is nearly 33 percentage points above the state average and actually surpasses even the top-performing Wicksburg Elementary School in this specific subject. The school also excels at supporting students from low socio-economic backgrounds, with over half of its students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, yet the school ranked in the 93rd percentile statewide for this subgroup's performance in 2023-2024. Additionally, Mulkey has a remarkably low chronic absenteeism rate of just 5.0% compared to the state average of 12.0%, and a favorable student-teacher ratio of 14.4—significantly better than nearby schools like Rucker Boulevard Elementary School (21.5) and Pinedale Elementary School (19.4).

However, there are areas of concern. The most significant is the performance of Special Education students, who ranked in the 9th percentile statewide in 2025-2026—a steep decline from the 42nd percentile just two years earlier. Additionally, 4th-grade science proficiency (41.57%) falls below the state average (50.23%), which is unusual for a school that outperforms the state in most other subjects. A gender gap has also emerged, with female students (74th percentile) now outperforming male students (68th percentile), a reversal from previous years. When compared to Geneva County Elementary School, Mulkey has a lower overall rank but offers a more stable and supportive environment with lower absenteeism and smaller class sizes. By addressing these specific challenges, Mulkey has strong potential to build on its many strengths.
