Summary

Tremont Attendance Center is a small, rural K-12 school in Tremont, Mississippi, serving 312 students across all grade levels as part of the Itawamba County School District. With 71.8% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, it has the highest poverty rate among nearby schools like Mantachie Attendance Center (70.5%), Belmont Schools (65.4%), and Smithville School (48.7%). The school also operates with an impressively low student-teacher ratio of 9.1 — the lowest in the group — which means more individualized attention for students.

Academically, Tremont shows real strength in the elementary and middle grades. In the most recent school year, 5th graders scored 68.8% proficient in ELA (compared to 55.8% statewide), 7th graders hit 75% in math (versus 57.7% statewide), and 5th graders posted 82.4% in science (versus 71.5% statewide). Tremont actually outperformed Mantachie Attendance Center, its sister school in the same district, in average elementary and middle school math proficiency (59.2% vs. 54.0%) and ELA (51.9% vs. 44.0%). For a school serving a high-poverty population, these results are genuinely encouraging and suggest that the low student-teacher ratio is making a difference in the classroom.

The bigger concern is high school. Tremont's end-of-course exam scores dropped sharply in the most recent year: Algebra I proficiency fell to 40.9%, English II to 26.4%, and Biology to 45.5% — all well below district and state averages. This follows a pattern of strong middle grades followed by weaker high school outcomes, and the school's graduation rate dipped to 88.9% in 2024-2025, down from 96% the year before. Chronic absenteeism sits at 22.6%, slightly above the district rate. Because class sizes are so small, test results can swing dramatically from year to year, but the high school trend is clearly worth watching. If Tremont can carry its middle-grades momentum into Algebra I, English II, and Biology, it has strong potential; right now, it's a school that succeeds early but struggles at the finish line.

Tremont Attendance Center is one of the best schools in our county. They have excellent teachers and parents that help make the students caring and hard working. I am a former Tremont student, Class of '94, and I hope to send my children to high school there. Close Quote
