Summary

East Flora Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in the Madison County School District in Flora, Mississippi, with 233 students.

While East Flora Elementary is part of a district that is ranked 18 out of 130 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating, the school itself has consistently underperformed compared to the district and state averages in standardized test scores across grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates in English Language Arts and Mathematics were significantly lower than the district and state averages. Additionally, East Flora Elementary has had high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 18.3% to 25.1% over the past few years, which is notably higher than the state average. The school also has an extremely high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 85.41% to 98.79% over the past few years, significantly higher than the other schools in the Madison County district.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the Madison County district, such as Highland Elementary, Madison Station Elementary, and Mannsdale Upper Elementary, significantly outperform East Flora Elementary in academic achievement. Even when compared to schools in the Jackson Public School District and the Canton Public School District, which are lower-performing districts, East Flora Elementary still underperforms. The school's performance has also declined over the years, as evidenced by its decreasing statewide ranking and star rating from SchoolDigger.
