Summary:
The Copiah County School District in Mississippi has only one high school, Crystal Springs High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school has consistently ranked in the bottom 15% of Mississippi high schools over the past three years, maintaining a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Crystal Springs High School faces significant challenges, with a 89.4% four-year graduation rate and a 23.9% chronic absenteeism rate. The school's proficiency rates on the MAAP end-of-course exams are consistently lower than the district and state averages across all subjects, ranging from 31.5% in English II to 53.5% in Algebra I, compared to the state averages of 49.5% and 67.3%, respectively. Additionally, 100% of the school's students are eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high-poverty student population.
Despite these challenges, Crystal Springs High School has a student-teacher ratio of 15.9 to 1, which is relatively low. However, the school's overall performance suggests that it may need to focus on improving its curriculum, instruction, and support for students in core academic areas to better serve its student population and raise academic achievement.
