Summary

Double Springs Elementary School serves 349 students in Pre-K through 4th grade in the rural Winston County community of Double Springs, AL, and has earned a consistent 2-star rating from the state over the past five years.

One of the school's standout strengths is its work with students from low-income backgrounds. In the most recent school year, Double Springs ranked in the 63rd percentile statewide for supporting these students—a higher mark than its overall 45th percentile ranking. This performance also outpaces nearby schools like Phillips Elementary School (41st percentile) and Lynn Elementary School (36th percentile). The school also shows notable strength in serving special education students, jumping from the 34th to the 59th percentile in just one year. Additionally, chronic absenteeism is well managed at 11.5%, far better than the 26.8% rate at Phillips Elementary and 18.7% at Lynn Elementary.

However, there are clear areas of concern. The most striking is a significant achievement gap among White students, who ranked in just the 14th percentile statewide—a persistent issue over the past three years. There's also a dramatic drop in proficiency between 3rd and 4th grade: English proficiency falls from about 70% in 3rd grade to 46% in 4th grade, a steeper decline than at Meek Elementary School. On a positive note, 4th-grade math proficiency has climbed from just 10% to nearly 43% over three years, showing recent interventions are working. Within the Winston County district, Double Springs consistently outperforms Lynn Elementary but trails Addison Elementary School and Meek Elementary in most subjects. The school spends about $10,295 per student—more than several higher-performing nearby schools—suggesting that resource allocation and instructional strategies, rather than funding, may be key areas for improvement.
