Summary

Maryvale Elementary School in Mobile, AL, serves approximately 475 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Mobile County school district, with nearly 90% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch.

Maryvale faces significant academic challenges, ranking in the bottom 15% of Alabama elementary schools. In the most recent school year, math proficiency ranged from just 14.81% in 4th grade to 23.73% in 5th grade, well below district averages. Science scores show the largest gap, with only 14.81% of 4th graders proficient compared to the district's 45.84%. However, there's a bright spot in English: 3rd-grade reading proficiency jumped from 12.36% to 41.77% over three years, suggesting literacy interventions are working. The school also made remarkable progress reducing chronic absenteeism from 42.6% to just 2.6% in one year, though it has since crept back up to 9.9%—still better than the district average of 12.8%.

When comparing Maryvale to nearby schools, the differences are stark. Just 1.5 miles away, EicholdMertz School of Math and Science and W H Council Traditional School rank in the top 1% statewide with 80-100% proficiency rates, though they serve far fewer low-income students. Even among schools with similar poverty levels, Maryvale tends to lag—for example, SpencerWestlawn Elementary School (90% free/reduced lunch) achieves 40.63% 3rd-grade math proficiency versus Maryvale's 18.75%. Special education students at Maryvale rank in the bottom 3% statewide, an area of particular concern. Notably, Maryvale spends more per student ($10,227) than the higher-performing nearby schools, suggesting that additional funding alone hasn't closed the achievement gap and that more comprehensive support may be needed.
