Summary

Elkmont Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 357 students in grades PK-5 in Elkmont, Alabama, which is part of the Limestone County School District. The school has consistently maintained a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past several years, outperforming the district and state averages in math and English/language arts proficiency across grades 3-5.

Elkmont Elementary's student subgroups, including female students, Hispanic students, and special education students, all rank in the top half of the state, while its white students and low-socioeconomic status students also perform relatively well. However, the school's chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 8.4% to 19.8% over the past few years, are an area of potential improvement. With a high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 45.26% to 66.95%, Elkmont Elementary serves a significant population of students from low-income families.

Compared to nearby schools, Elkmont Elementary generally outperforms Tanner Elementary School in test scores and student subgroup performance, but lags behind the stronger performing Johnson Elementary and Cedar Hill Elementary schools in the Limestone County district. While Elkmont Elementary's spending per student of $9,722 is on par with other Limestone County schools, its student-teacher ratio of 16.3 is higher than the nearby schools, which have ratios around 14-15 students per teacher.
