Summary:

The Marshall County School District in Mississippi operates 8 schools, including 4 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 3 high schools. The district as a whole is ranked 89 out of 130 districts in the state and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Within the district, a few schools stand out. Galena Elementary School has some of the highest proficiency rates, particularly in 5th grade English Language Arts (70% proficient) and 5th grade Mathematics (60% proficient). Additionally, Potts Camp High School has the highest proficiency rates on several end-of-course exams, including Algebra I (80.6% proficient), U.S. History (76.2% proficient), and Biology (56.6% proficient).

However, the district as a whole faces significant challenges, with all schools having 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch and high chronic absenteeism rates ranging from 23.9% to 24.9%. While the high schools generally outperform the elementary and middle schools, there is a wide range in academic performance between the schools, suggesting that factors beyond just socioeconomic status play a role in student outcomes. The data highlights the need for targeted interventions and support to improve educational opportunities for students in the Marshall County School District.
