Summary

Augusta Evans School is an alternative public school located in Mobile, Alabama, serving grades PK-12 with a total enrollment of 192 students. The school is part of the Mobile County school district, which is ranked 94 out of 135 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's relatively high four-year graduation rates, ranging from 83.0% to 90.0% in recent years, and low dropout rates, ranging from 0.0% to 7.0%, Augusta Evans School has consistently underperformed compared to the Mobile County and Alabama state averages in most subject areas and grade levels. The school has had 0% proficiency rates in many math and English assessments, while the state and county averages are significantly higher. Additionally, the school has had high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 14.8% to 31.5% in recent years, which are significantly higher than the state and county averages.

Despite the high spending per student of $35,051 in the 2018-2019 school year, which is significantly higher than the state and county averages, and the relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 7.1 to 10.5 in recent years, the academic performance of Augusta Evans School remains a concern. The school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 75.81% to 76.04% in recent years, suggests that the student population faces significant socioeconomic challenges, which may be contributing to the academic performance issues. Compared to the nearby Mobile Mental Health Center, which serves a similar alternative school population, Augusta Evans School has a lower student-teacher ratio but significantly lower test scores, indicating that factors beyond just staffing ratios may be impacting student achievement.
