Summary:

The 36401 zip code area in Alabama is home to 5 schools serving students from elementary through high school, all part of the Conecuh County school district. While the district is ranked 114 out of 135 in the state, a closer look at the individual schools reveals some standout performers and areas for improvement.

Evergreen Elementary School stands out with relatively high proficiency rates in 3rd-5th grade English, but struggles in Math and Science, with low proficiency rates compared to the county and state. Hillcrest High School boasts a 90% 4-year graduation rate, but lags behind in 11th grade core subject proficiency. The Genesis Innovative School, an alternative school, has extremely low Math proficiency but relatively high English proficiency.

Across the board, the schools in the 36401 zip code area face challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, a large percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, and overall low academic performance compared to state averages. These findings suggest a need for targeted interventions and support to improve educational outcomes for students in this community.
