Summary:
There is just one elementary school in the Revive area: Revive Collegiate, a K–3 school in Jackson serving 367 students and part of the one-school Revive district. Because it is the only school in the district, the school and district numbers are identical, but state benchmarks still provide useful context. The school serves an exceptionally high-need population, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.
Academically, Revive Collegiate is a low-performing school overall, earning a 1-star rating and ranking in the 15th percentile statewide (321 out of 377). The most serious problem is mathematics: only about 1 in 5 students is proficient in math (20.3% in 3rd grade and 22.2% in 4th grade), compared with roughly 1 in 2 students across Mississippi. Reading performance is mixed. The 4th-grade English Language Arts proficiency rate is 49.2%, just 3.2 points below the state average of 52.4%, which is a clear bright spot. However, 3rd-grade ELA proficiency is only 29.2%, 19.3 points below the state average, suggesting early reading support may need more attention.
Attendance is another major concern. Chronic absenteeism is 36.9%, far above the state average of 23.9%, and likely contributes to the low math scores. There is also a data oddity: the school is listed as serving only K–3, yet 4th-grade test scores were reported. This should be clarified to ensure the grade span and test data are accurate. Overall, Revive Collegiate faces serious challenges in math and attendance, but its 4th-grade reading performance shows the school is capable of getting close to state averages, and those areas of relative strength could be built upon.
