Summary:

The Lauderdale County School District in Mississippi is home to four high schools that serve students in grades 9-12. These schools demonstrate a range of academic performance, with some standouts like Clarkdale High School and West Lauderdale High School consistently outperforming their peers in the district and state.

Clarkdale High School is the top-performing school in the district, ranking 4th out of 232 Mississippi high schools and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The district-wide four-year graduation rate is 89.4%, which is above the state average, but chronic absenteeism remains a concern across all schools, ranging from 23.9% to 23.9%. The schools also vary in their free/reduced lunch rates, which may contribute to the disparities in academic performance.
