Summary

Curry High School in Jasper, AL, is a public high school serving 364 students in grades 9-12 within the Walker County School District, where about half of the student body qualifies for free or reduced lunch.

Curry High School is characterized by significant year-to-year swings in academic performance. After a standout 2023-2024 year when it ranked in the 75th percentile statewide, the school dropped dramatically to the 25th percentile in 2025-2026. In the most recent testing, only 9.52% of 11th graders were proficient in math and 18.52% in English—both well below state averages. This volatility is also reflected in subgroup performance, with White students and low-income students ranking in the 6th and 11th percentiles respectively in 2025-2026. However, there are bright spots: the school excels in supporting Special Education students (77th percentile in 2024-2025) and has improved its graduation rate from 82.6% to 94.3% over three years, now exceeding both district and state averages. Chronic absenteeism remains a concern at 16.5%, notably higher than nearby Cold Springs High School (6.5%) and Addison High School (9.4%).

Compared to neighboring schools, Curry faces clear academic challenges. Cordova High School, also in Walker County, ranks in the 58th percentile with math proficiency more than double Curry's (20% vs. 9.52%). Jasper High School, in the Jasper City district, ranks in the 77th percentile with proficiency rates roughly three times higher in math. Cold Springs High School stands out as a model of consistency at the 81st percentile with math proficiency over four times higher than Curry's. While Curry spends $10,592 per student—more than Dora High School and Meek High School—its outcomes lag significantly, suggesting that improving instructional consistency and addressing absenteeism will be key to reversing the current downward trend.
