Summary

Boyd Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades 1-5 in Greenville, Mississippi, with 312 students. The school is part of the Greenville Public Schools district, which is ranked 104 out of 130 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being in the bottom half of Mississippi schools for many years, Boyd Elementary has consistently struggled with high rates of chronic absenteeism, ranging from 20.4% to 33.9% over the past few years. This is significantly higher than the state average and indicates a potential issue with student engagement and attendance. Additionally, the school's test scores on the MAAP assessments are consistently below the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, only 40% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 49.4% statewide. The school's math and science scores also lag behind.

When comparing Boyd Elementary to other nearby schools in the Greenville Public Schools district, it becomes clear that Boyd is one of the lower-performing schools. For instance, Akin Elementary and Trigg Elementary have significantly higher test scores and better overall performance metrics. Despite these challenges, Boyd Elementary has not shown consistent improvement in its rankings or test scores, and the school's performance has remained stagnant or even declined in some areas over the past decade.
