Summary:
The 35010 zip code is home to a single high school, Benjamin Russell High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. Located in the Alexander City school district, the school has seen fluctuations in its statewide ranking, ranging from the top quarter to the middle third of Alabama high schools in recent years.
Benjamin Russell High School has an enrollment of 843 students and a four-year graduation rate of 90.0%. The school's performance is mixed, with science and English test scores above the state averages, but mathematics scores slightly below. The school faces challenges, including a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 14.8% and a significant proportion (38.2%) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.
Despite these challenges, the school's spending per student of $10,158 is in line with the state average, and the student-teacher ratio of 16.5 is within a typical range. While the data provides a snapshot of the school's performance and characteristics, a more comprehensive analysis would be needed to fully understand the school's strengths, areas for improvement, and the impact of its resources on student outcomes.
