Flat Rock School

Public Grades PK, KG-6

Summary

Flat Rock School is a small, rural elementary school in Flat Rock, AL, serving just 80 students in grades PK-6 within the Jackson County district. This intimate setting has become a major strength, as the school has made impressive strides recently, earning a 3-star rating and ranking in the 67th percentile of Alabama elementary schools—a big jump from the previous year.

One of the most notable improvements is in attendance. The chronic absenteeism rate has plummeted from 18.6% to just 5.5% in two years, which is less than half the state average and among the best in the area. At the same time, the school has invested heavily in smaller classes, dropping the student-teacher ratio from 19.5 to 10.6—the lowest among all nearby schools, including Henagar Junior High School and Wills Valley Elementary School. This focus on personalized attention appears to be paying off, especially in reading, where 80% of 3rd graders are proficient—well above the district and state averages and competitive with top performers like Dutton Elementary School.

While English language arts is a clear strength, math scores lag behind, with only about 47% of 3rd graders and 38% of 6th graders meeting proficiency. The school also serves a changing community, with the percentage of students qualifying for free/reduced lunch dropping from 71.65% to 50% in just two years. Compared to its closest neighbor, Rosalie Elementary School, Flat Rock is outperforming it in overall ranking. With its dramatically improved attendance, smaller classes, and strong reading results, Flat Rock is on an upward trajectory, though closing the math gap will be key to sustaining its momentum.
