Summary:
The West Jasper Consolidated Schools district in Mississippi contains a single elementary school, Bay Springs Elementary School, which serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade.
Bay Springs Elementary School has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, placing it in the top 41 out of 130 school districts in Mississippi. The school's performance on state assessments varies, with 3rd-grade students outperforming the district and state averages in both English Language Arts and Mathematics, but 4th and 5th-grade students showing more mixed results. The school's 5th-grade students performed better than the district and state in Science. However, the school faces challenges, including a high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.9% and a student population with a high percentage (96.95%) qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating significant economic disadvantage.
Overall, Bay Springs Elementary School appears to be a moderately performing school within the West Jasper Consolidated Schools district, with strengths in the lower grades but room for improvement in the upper elementary grades. Addressing attendance issues and supporting the unique needs of the school's economically disadvantaged student population may be key priorities for the school and district.
