Summary:
The North Bolivar Cons School District in Mississippi contains only one high school, Northside High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. Based on the available data, Northside High School appears to be a struggling school within the district, with declining performance, significant academic achievement gaps, and high rates of poverty and chronic absenteeism.
Northside High School's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past three years, from 208th out of 226 Mississippi high schools in 2022-2023 to 137th out of 232 in 2024-2025. The school's performance on standardized tests is consistently below the district and state averages across various subjects and grade levels. Additionally, the school's four-year graduation rate of 89.4% in the 2022-2023 school year was slightly below the state average, and its chronic absenteeism rate of 23.9% was significantly higher than the state average.
The data suggests that Northside High School faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with a 100% free and reduced-price lunch rate indicating a high percentage of students from low-income families. The school's student-teacher ratio of 12.5 is also slightly higher than the state average. These factors, combined with the school's academic performance and attendance issues, suggest that Northside High School may benefit from targeted interventions and support to address the underlying challenges and improve student outcomes.
