Summary:

Chatom Union has two schools serving kindergarten through grade 8: Chatom Elementary (grades K–5, 391 students) and Mountain View Middle (grades 6–8, 166 students), with no high school in the supplied data. Their clearest difference is mathematics: Chatom is above the state overall, while Mountain View is well below it.

Chatom Elementary stands out most positively in math, with 51% proficient compared with 38% statewide, a 13-point advantage; its grade 3 math result is 21 points above the state. Mountain View Middle is the clearest concern in math: 22% proficient, 17 points below the state, and below the state in each of grades 6–8, including a 21-point deficit in grade 6. Science is a shared weakness: results are 15% at Chatom and 17% at Mountain View, versus 36% statewide. All-grades comparisons are descriptive because the schools serve different grades, not a like-for-like ranking.

Recent results also diverge: from 2024–2025 to 2025–2026, Chatom gained 7 points in ELA and 8 in math, while Mountain View fell 2 points in ELA and 5 in math. Science declined at both—2 points at Chatom and 10 at Mountain View—while the state gained 3 points. SchoolDigger ranks Chatom at the 57th percentile (3 stars) and Mountain View at the 37th percentile (2 stars); those rankings rose 8 percentile points for Chatom and fell 13 for Mountain View over the latest year. Both schools have a 2024–2025 free/reduced lunch eligible measure close to three-quarters: 75% at Chatom and 72% at Mountain View. Their student–teacher ratios are also similar, 23:1 and 23.3:1, respectively; these figures provide context, not an explanation for test results.
