Summary

Blount Elementary School in Montgomery, AL, is a PK-5 school serving 359 students in the Montgomery County district, located near Maxwell Air Force Base.

Blount stands out as a clear academic leader among its immediate Montgomery County neighbors. In recent testing, Blount's proficiency rates in math and English are substantially higher than nearby schools like Dozier Elementary School, Fitzpatrick Elementary School, and Garrett Elementary School. For example, in 4th grade math, Blount's proficiency rate (37.5%) is six times higher than Dozier's (6.3%). The school also excels in science, with 4th grade proficiency (53.1%) exceeding the state average and more than double that of most nearby schools. Blount also has remarkably low chronic absenteeism at 11.0%, less than half the district average of 25.2%, suggesting strong family engagement. The school has shown exceptional success with English Language Learners (ranking 3rd statewide) and military-connected students (ranking 1st in its cohort), likely due to its proximity to Maxwell AFB.

However, Blount has experienced a significant decline in its statewide ranking over the past decade, falling from the 86th percentile in 2015-2016 to the 42nd percentile in 2025-2026. This decline correlates with a changing demographic profile, as the free/reduced lunch rate jumped from 13.6% to 38.16% in recent years. While Blount outperforms its Montgomery County peers, it still trails high-performing schools like Pike Road Elementary School (just 6 miles away), which ranks in the 88th percentile statewide. Notably, Blount achieves these results while spending less per student ($8,800) than several nearby schools, suggesting efficient resource use. The school's strengths in science, attendance, and support for specific student groups provide a solid foundation, though maintaining academic excellence as the student population evolves remains a key challenge.
