Summary

Crystal Springs High School is a public high school in Crystal Springs, Mississippi, serving 404 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Copiah County School District, which is ranked 59 out of 130 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating.

Despite being part of the Copiah County School District, Crystal Springs High School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Mississippi high schools over the past 10 years, with rankings ranging from 190 to 230 out of 232-237 schools. The school has also received a 0 or 1 out of 5 SchoolDigger star rating for the majority of the past decade, indicating very poor overall performance compared to other schools in the state. Additionally, the school's 4-year graduation rate, while improving, is still below the state average, and it has experienced significantly higher chronic absenteeism rates than the state average.

When comparing Crystal Springs High School to nearby schools, such as Richland High School and Florence High School, both part of the higher-performing Rankin County School District, it becomes clear that Crystal Springs High School is significantly underperforming its peers. The school's high poverty levels, chronic absenteeism, and consistently lower test scores suggest that it may be facing significant challenges in terms of student engagement, access to resources, and overall academic support, which likely contribute to its persistent underperformance.
