Summary

Double Springs Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 354 students in grades PK-4 in Double Springs, Alabama. The school is part of the Winston County School District, which is ranked 57 out of 135 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's higher per-student spending of $10,295 in 2018-2019, Double Springs Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Alabama elementary schools over the past decade, indicating a need for significant improvement in academic achievement. The school's performance on state assessments is generally below the Winston County and Alabama averages across grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, only 56% of 3rd graders were proficient in math compared to 61.7% in Winston County and 45.47% statewide. The school has also struggled with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 14.1% to 17.9% over the past few years, which is higher than the state average and the rates at nearby schools like Addison Elementary and Meek Elementary.

The high percentage of students from low-income backgrounds at Double Springs Elementary, with 76.55% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024, likely contributes to the school's academic struggles and high chronic absenteeism rates. Addressing these issues will require a comprehensive approach that leverages the strengths of the district and nearby schools, while also targeting the unique needs of the Double Springs Elementary community.
