Summary

CollinsRhodes Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Eight Mile, Alabama, serving grades PK-5 with a student population of 591. The school is part of the Mobile County school district, which is ranked 94 out of 135 districts in Alabama and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

CollinsRhodes Elementary consistently performs below the state and district averages in standardized test scores across all grade levels and subjects. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 17.17% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to 36.88% in the Mobile County district and 45.47% statewide. The school has also struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 14.8% to 31.5% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average. Interestingly, CollinsRhodes Elementary has shown relatively strong performance for its homeless student population, ranking 2nd out of 6 Alabama elementary schools in 2022-2023 with a 4-star rating for this subgroup.

When comparing CollinsRhodes Elementary to nearby schools in the same district, such as Whitley Elementary, Orchard Elementary, and Forest Hill Elementary, it becomes clear that CollinsRhodes is underperforming. These nearby schools, while still below state averages, generally have higher test scores, lower chronic absenteeism rates, and better overall school rankings. However, CollinsRhodes Elementary's spending per student of $9,411 in the 2018-2019 school year is on par with the nearby schools, suggesting that funding alone is not the primary driver of the school's underperformance.
