Summary:
The city of Eupora, Mississippi is home to two schools: Eupora High School and Eupora Elementary School, both part of the Webster County School District. While Eupora Elementary has consistently ranked among the top 25% of elementary schools in Mississippi, Eupora High School has had a more mixed performance, with its statewide ranking fluctuating between the top 37% and the bottom 44% of high schools.
Eupora Elementary School appears to be a standout in the area, earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger and consistently outperforming the district and state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science for grades 3-5. In contrast, Eupora High School has shown some strengths, such as high proficiency rates in Algebra I and U.S. History, but its English Language Arts and Mathematics scores are often below the district and state averages.
Both schools face challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates exceeding 23% and a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, which can be associated with additional educational and resource needs. However, the data suggests that there may be opportunities for the elementary and high school to collaborate and share best practices or resources to enhance educational outcomes across the district.
