Summary

Beauregard High School is a public high school in Opelika, AL, serving 533 students in grades 9-12 within the Lee County district, located in a rural area about 6-8 miles from Auburn and Opelika.

Beauregard has quietly become one of the more impressive turnaround stories in the area. Over the past decade, the school has climbed from the bottom third of Alabama high schools to the 69th percentile statewide, and it has earned 4-star ratings for three consecutive years before a 3-star rating in 2025-2026. What makes this particularly noteworthy is that over half of the student body (53.47%) qualifies for free/reduced lunch, yet the school ranks in the 80th percentile statewide for economically disadvantaged students—a remarkable achievement that outpaces most schools with similar demographics. The school also posts strong science scores, with 42.86% of 11th graders proficient, beating both the district (38.18%) and state (36.17%) averages. Perhaps most striking is the school's chronic absenteeism rate of just 8.9%, which is dramatically lower than nearby schools like Opelika High School (20.0%), Central High School (22.4%), and Russell County High School (18.1%). With a favorable 12.1:1 student-teacher ratio, students get more personalized attention than at larger schools like Auburn High School (17.5:1) or Smiths Station High School (15.6:1).

The school's graduation rate of 92.9% exceeds both the district (92.3%) and state (91.5%) averages, and it has improved steadily from 85.1% in 2018-2019. While Beauregard's raw test scores are lower than Auburn High School's—a 5-star school in the 94th percentile—it's important to consider context: Auburn serves a much more affluent population (29.05% free/reduced lunch). Given its economic challenges, Beauregard is clearly adding significant educational value. The school does face challenges, particularly in supporting its special education students, who rank in the 31st percentile statewide. However, for parents seeking a supportive, personalized environment where students show up and the school delivers strong results despite economic hurdles, Beauregard is a compelling choice that continues to trend upward.
