Summary

Eden Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 403 students in grades PK-4 in Pell City, Alabama, which is part of the Pell City School District. However, the school has consistently underperformed compared to other elementary schools in the state, ranking in the bottom half of Alabama schools over the past several years and maintaining a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating below-average performance.

Eden Elementary struggles across various student subgroups, with rankings in the bottom half of Alabama elementary schools for female, male, white, special education, and low socioeconomic status students. The school's performance is particularly low for its white student population, ranking in the bottom 15% of Alabama elementary schools for this subgroup. Additionally, Eden Elementary has had high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 14.8% to 22.1% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average.

Interestingly, the other elementary schools in the Pell City district, such as Coosa Valley Elementary, Walter M. Kennedy School, and Iola Roberts Elementary, generally outperform Eden Elementary across various metrics, including statewide rankings, test scores, and chronic absenteeism rates. This suggests that Eden Elementary may face unique challenges that need to be addressed to improve the school's performance and provide a better educational experience for its students.
