Summary

Pike County Elementary School in Brundidge, AL, serves 454 students from Pre-K through 6th grade and is part of the Pike County district, where roughly 80% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

This school has a notable strength: it ranks in the 93rd percentile statewide for its work with African American students, placing it among the top 7% of Alabama schools in that area. It also does well supporting students from low-income backgrounds, ranking in the 67th percentile. However, there is a significant gap in outcomes for White students, who rank in the 8th percentile—a sharp decline from previous years. The school also shows uneven math performance by grade level: 3rd and 5th graders score well above state averages (58.7% and 66.7% proficient), while 4th and 6th graders lag behind (23.3% and 21.6%). This pattern has persisted for several years, suggesting a possible transition issue in 4th grade that may be worth investigating.

Compared to nearby schools, Pike County Elementary holds its own in some areas but trails others. Banks School, just 6 miles away in the same district, outperforms it in nearly every subject—for example, 62.2% vs. 23.3% proficiency in 4th grade math—and has a much lower chronic absenteeism rate (8.6% vs. 17.0%). GW Long Elementary in Dale County also scores higher, though it serves a more affluent population. On the positive side, Pike County Elementary beats its own district average in several subjects, including 5th grade math (66.7% vs. 37.0%) and 3rd grade English (73.9% vs. 69.8%). The school has also cut chronic absenteeism by 38% since 2021-2022, a promising sign of improvement.
