Summary

Halcyon Elementary School in Montgomery, AL, serves 694 students from Pre-K through 5th grade and stands out as a strong academic option within the Montgomery County district, which overall holds a 1-star rating.

Halcyon is a clear academic leader compared to nearby schools. With a 2-star rating and a statewide rank in the 35th percentile, it significantly outperforms neighbors like Wares Ferry Elementary School, Garrett Elementary School, and Dozier Elementary School, which all rank in the bottom 10% statewide. Only Blount Elementary School ranks comparably. Halcyon's 5th-grade English Language Arts proficiency rate is an impressive 77.65%, far exceeding both the district average (53.28%) and the state average (69.53%). In math, its 3rd-grade proficiency (39.42%) is nearly double that of Wares Ferry and more than four times that of Garrett. The school also has a lower chronic absenteeism rate (16%) than the district average (25.2%), suggesting a healthier, more engaged school climate.

Halcyon shows exceptional strength in serving specific student groups. It ranked 3rd out of 142 schools statewide for English Language Learner performance, earning a 5-star rating. It also demonstrates notable success with its African American students, who rank in the 60th percentile statewide. However, the school struggles with its Special Education population, which dropped to the 18th percentile recently. Academic performance varies by grade and subject—while 5th-grade ELA is outstanding, 4th-grade ELA is only 39.29%, and 4th-grade math dips to 27.91%. Despite an increase in economic need (free/reduced lunch rose to 62.54%), the school's overall ranking improved, indicating effective support for its growing diverse student body.
