Summary

Biggersville Elementary is a public elementary school located in Corinth, Mississippi, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 338 students. The school is part of the Alcorn School District, which is ranked 30 out of 130 school districts in Mississippi and is rated 4 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Biggersville Elementary faces several key challenges, including high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 17.3% to 23.9% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the state average. The school's academic performance, as measured by test scores, has been mixed, with 3rd grade English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rates lower than the district and state, but 5th grade ELA proficiency rates sometimes exceeding them. In Mathematics, Biggersville has shown stronger performance, with 3rd grade proficiency rates often exceeding the state and district averages. Notably, Kossuth Elementary, another school in the Alcorn School District, consistently outperforms Biggersville Elementary on state assessments and has a higher statewide ranking.

Biggersville Elementary also faces socioeconomic challenges, with an exceptionally high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 77.51% to 99.04% in recent years, significantly higher than the state and district averages. However, the school has maintained a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 13 to 14.5 students per teacher in recent years, which may provide more individualized attention for students. Addressing the root causes of chronic absenteeism, improving teaching and learning, and providing targeted interventions and support services tailored to the needs of the school's predominantly economically disadvantaged population could be crucial for Biggersville Elementary's long-term success.
