Summary

Munford High School is a small public high school in Munford, AL, serving 385 students in grades 9-12 within the Talladega County district. The school holds a 2-star rating and ranks in the 46th percentile statewide, but its real story is one of notable strengths in student engagement and literacy, alongside clear challenges in math.

The most impressive thing about Munford is its ability to keep students on track. Its graduation rate of 95.6% outpaces the state average (91.5%) and beats several nearby schools, including Wellborn High School (87.1%) and Talladega High School (88.5%). The school has also made remarkable progress in attendance, slashing chronic absenteeism from 31% to just 10.5% over three years—now better than the district and state averages, and far lower than Lincoln High School (18.6%) or Oxford High School (18.0%). Academically, English is a clear strength, with 31.82% of 11th graders proficient—well above the district average and nearly matching the state. This literacy focus has been consistent for four straight years.

However, math is a major concern. Only 13.64% of students are proficient in math, roughly half the district average and well below the state. This creates a stark "tale of two subjects" that parents should be aware of. Compared to Anniston High School, Munford is a clear winner in every subject, but it lags behind Oxford High School in test scores—though Munford actually graduates a higher percentage of students than Oxford (95.6% vs. 93.7%). Performance has also been volatile across student groups, with significant swings in rankings for different subgroups year to year. Overall, Munford is a school that excels at keeping students engaged and graduating them, but it needs targeted work in math instruction to lift its academic standing.
