Summary:

The Tunica County School District in Mississippi operates 5 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district as a whole is ranked 85 out of 130 school districts in the state and is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Within the district, a few schools stand out. Dundee Elementary School has some of the strongest academic performance, with the highest proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics across grades 3-4, as well as the highest 5th grade science proficiency in the district. Meanwhile, Rosa Fort High School has performed relatively well, with proficiency rates exceeding the state average in Algebra I, Biology, and U.S. History. The high school also had a strong 89.4% four-year graduation rate in 2022-2023.

However, the district faces significant challenges, with most schools underperforming state averages. All schools in the district had a high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.9% in 2022-2023, well above the state average. Additionally, all schools had 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating high levels of economic disadvantage. While the strong performance of Dundee Elementary and Rosa Fort High School provide hope, addressing the district's overall academic struggles, attendance issues, and socioeconomic factors will be crucial for improving educational outcomes for students in the Tunica County School District.
