Summary:
The 36610 zip code area of Mobile, Alabama is home to 5 schools serving grades K-12, all part of the Mobile County school district. While the district as a whole is ranked 94 out of 135 in the state, the schools in this zip code face significant challenges, with consistently low academic performance across the board.
Among the standout schools, WD Robbins Elementary performs relatively well on standardized tests, with 3rd-grade math and English proficiency rates above the county and state averages. However, the school still ranks in the bottom half of Alabama elementary schools. In contrast, Grant Elementary struggles academically, with very low proficiency rates in math and science, and ranks in the bottom 10% of the state. The high school, CF Vigor High School, has a relatively high 90% four-year graduation rate, but also a concerning 5.2% dropout rate.
Across the schools, there are systemic challenges that need to be addressed, such as high poverty levels, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 84.17% to 98.08%, and chronic absenteeism rates of 14.8%. These factors likely contribute to the consistently low academic performance, with most schools in the bottom quarter of their respective school types in the state. Addressing these underlying issues will be crucial for improving educational outcomes in the 36610 zip code area.
