Elementary Schools in Alcorn School District

Summary:

The Alcorn School District in Mississippi is home to three elementary schools: Kossuth Elementary School, Alcorn Central Elementary School, and Biggersville Elementary. Based on the available data, Kossuth Elementary stands out as the highest-performing school in the district, consistently outpacing the district and state averages in academic proficiency.

Kossuth Elementary has the highest statewide school ranking, placing 71st out of 383 Mississippi elementary schools, and maintains a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school outperforms the district and state in proficiency rates for both English Language Arts and Mathematics across 3rd and 4th grades. Additionally, Kossuth Elementary has the lowest percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients at 56.89% and the best student-teacher ratio at 12.4.

While the three schools share a high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.9%, which is above the state average, the data suggests that the socioeconomic differences between the schools may be a contributing factor to their varying academic performance. Biggersville Elementary, in particular, has inconsistent test scores, with some grades performing well above the district and state, while others perform significantly below. Addressing attendance issues and ensuring consistent quality of instruction across all grade levels could help improve educational opportunities for students in the Alcorn School District.
