Summary

Anna F Booth Elementary School in Irvington, AL, serves 391 students in grades PK-5 within the Mobile County school district, where about 70% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

This school has some standout strengths that set it apart from nearby schools. Most notably, 4th grade science proficiency is exceptional at 74.55%, which is roughly 29 percentage points higher than the district average and far exceeds every comparable school in the area, including Dawes Intermediate School (68.62%) and Saint Elmo Elementary School (66.67%). Upper-grade math is also a clear strength, with 4th grade math proficiency at 54.55%—the highest among nearby schools and well above the state average. The school also excels at supporting students with special needs, ranking in the 85th percentile statewide, and it performs strongly with students from low-income backgrounds, ranking in the 73rd percentile. Additionally, chronic absenteeism has been cut by more than half over three years, dropping from 27.1% to 12.8%, now matching the district average.

Compared to its closest geographic neighbor, Dixon Elementary School, which has nearly identical demographics, Anna F Booth significantly outperforms it—ranking 249th statewide versus Dixon's 443rd, with dramatically higher proficiency in both math and reading. While the school has declined from its former top-tier status (it was once ranked in the 90th percentile), it has stabilized in recent years and remains a solid mid-tier choice. Areas to watch include a growing gap between female and male student performance and 3rd grade math scores that fall slightly below the state average. Overall, Anna F Booth delivers strong results in science and upper-grade math, supports diverse learners effectively, and offers a compelling option for families in the Irvington area.
