Summary:
The Mississippi Achievement School District Of Humphreys County contains just one elementary school, Ida Greene Elementary School, which serves grades PK through 4 and enrolls 398 students in a high-poverty area where every student qualifies for free or reduced lunch. The district is ranked 131 of 134 districts in Mississippi, placing it in the 2nd percentile with a 0-star rating, and since Ida Greene is the only elementary campus, district and school metrics are identical.
Ida Greene Elementary School shows a mixed but improving academic picture. In 2025-2026, 4th grade math proficiency jumped from 21.2% to 43.2%, bringing the school within about 8 points of the state average of 51.5% — a notable achievement for a school in the bottom 10% of the state. However, 3rd grade math dropped from 36.0% to 22.3% over the same period. English Language Arts remains the most urgent challenge: only 15.8% of 3rd graders and 13.6% of 4th graders are proficient, compared with state averages around 48-52%, leaving a gap of roughly 35-39 points.
The school's state ranking has improved steadily, from 386 of 390 (bottom 1%) in 2023-2024, to 366 of 383 (bottom 4%) in 2024-2025, to 341 of 377 (bottom 10%) in 2025-2026. Chronic absenteeism is 22.5%, slightly below the state average of 23.9%, suggesting attendance is not the primary barrier. Given that 100% of students face economic disadvantage, these gains are meaningful, but continued focus on ELA and 3rd grade math will be essential for sustained improvement.
