Summary:
The 36474 zip code is home to a single alternative public school, Red Level School, which serves grades PK-12 and has a total enrollment of 521 students. The school is part of the Covington County school district, which is ranked 61 out of 135 districts in Alabama and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Despite maintaining a relatively high four-year graduation rate of 90.0%, Red Level School's academic performance lags behind the Covington County district and the state of Alabama as a whole. The school's test scores in mathematics, science, and English language arts are generally lower than the district and state averages. Additionally, the school has a high chronic absenteeism rate of 14.8%, which could be a contributing factor to the lower academic performance. The school serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, as evidenced by the high percentage of students (71.21%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch.
While Red Level School faces some significant challenges, the data suggests that the school may be effective in supporting students to complete their high school education. However, the school's lower spending per student of $8,239 compared to the national average may limit the resources available to address the school's challenges and improve academic outcomes. Overall, the data highlights the need for targeted interventions and additional support to help Red Level School and its students succeed.
