Summary

Hackleburg High School is a public high school in Hackleburg, Alabama, serving grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 238 students. The school is part of the Marion County School District, which is ranked 48 out of 135 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Hackleburg High School has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from a high of 70th out of 374 Alabama high schools in 2024-2025 (with a 4-star rating) to a low of 319th out of 367 in 2021-2022 (with a 1-star rating), indicating inconsistent performance. The school has faced challenges, including varying performance among different student groups, a relatively high dropout rate, and high chronic absenteeism. While the school has maintained a relatively high four-year graduation rate, its test scores have been mixed compared to the Marion County and Alabama averages, with better performance in English/Language Arts but struggles in Mathematics and Science.

Compared to nearby schools, such as Hamilton High School and Phillips High School, Hackleburg High School generally underperforms, with lower test scores and a higher student-teacher ratio. However, the school's spending per student is higher than some of the nearby schools. To improve its performance, Hackleburg High School should focus on addressing the root causes of its high dropout and chronic absenteeism rates, as well as implementing targeted strategies to improve student achievement, particularly in Mathematics and Science.
