Summary

Breitling Elementary School is a public elementary school in Grand Bay, Alabama, serving 460 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Mobile County School District. The school generally performs better than the district and state averages in both mathematics and English language arts assessments, with 3rd-grade math proficiency at 44.59% compared to 36.88% for Mobile County and 45.47% for Alabama, and 5th-grade ELA proficiency at 69.74%, higher than the district (62.55%) and state (67.41%) averages.

However, Breitling Elementary has experienced relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 14.6% to 31.5% in recent years, which can negatively impact student learning. The school also has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 59.85% to 60.22%, indicating a relatively high proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds. When compared to nearby schools, Breitling generally performs better than some, such as WC Griggs Elementary and Nan Gray Davis Elementary, but lags behind higher-performing schools like Dawes Intermediate and Cora Castlen Elementary.

Breitling Elementary's performance also varies across different student subgroups, with male students tending to perform better than female students, and white students outperforming their special education and low-socioeconomic status peers. Despite these challenges, the school's per-student spending of $10,661 in the 2018-2019 school year is higher than the state average, and it has maintained a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 17 to 20.1 students per teacher in recent years, which could be a positive factor in supporting student learning.
