Summary

Addison Elementary School serves 346 students from Pre-K through 6th grade in the rural community of Addison, Alabama, and has earned a consistent 4-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past three years, placing it in the 77th percentile statewide.

Addison Elementary stands out as a top performer within the Winston County district, significantly outpacing nearby Double Springs Elementary School (45th percentile) and even surpassing Meek Elementary School (69th percentile), which has slipped from its previous 93rd percentile ranking. The school's math scores are particularly impressive—3rd graders posted a 70.45% proficiency rate compared to the state average of 44.89%, and 6th graders achieved 56.86% versus the state's 35.22%. English Language Arts scores are equally strong, with 79.55% proficiency in 3rd grade and 77.14% in 5th grade, both well above state averages. What makes these results even more notable is that Addison achieves them with a higher student-teacher ratio (18.6) and lower per-student spending ($9,086) than many neighboring schools like Harmony School ($12,608 per student) and Speake ($11,770), demonstrating remarkable efficiency and resourcefulness.

Perhaps the most compelling story is how Addison Elementary serves all its students exceptionally well. The school ranks in the 89th percentile statewide for Special Education students, earning a 4-star rating, and shows outstanding results for male students (87th-93rd percentile over the past two years). Students from lower socio-economic backgrounds also perform strongly, ranking in the 91st percentile in 2024-2025. The school maintains an impressively low chronic absenteeism rate of 8.6%, well below the district (11.8%) and state (12.0%) averages. While math scores do show some grade-level variability—5th grade dipped to 45.71% proficiency in 2025-2026—the school's overall trajectory is one of steady improvement, climbing from the 53rd percentile in 2015-2016 to its current strong standing, proving that effective instruction and targeted support can overcome demographic challenges.
