Summary:
The Leland School District in Mississippi consists of three schools: Leland School Park (a middle school), Edna M Scott Elementary School, and Leland High School. The district as a whole has struggled with low academic performance, with all three schools ranking in the bottom 25-50% of their respective school types in Mississippi.
Leland School Park middle school has consistently ranked in the bottom 25% of Mississippi middle schools, with high chronic absenteeism rates and significantly underperforming the state average on standardized tests. Edna M Scott Elementary School has shown some improvement in recent years, but still ranks in the bottom 50% of Mississippi elementary schools and has high chronic absenteeism. However, the school stands out with strong 5th grade science scores.
Leland High School has maintained a relatively high 4-year graduation rate of 89.4%, but its performance on standardized tests is mixed, with some subject areas exceeding the state average while others fall well below. Across all three schools, the district faces challenges with high poverty and chronic absenteeism, which may be significantly impacting student outcomes.
