Summary

DeLisle Elementary School serves 400 students in grades PK–5 in Pass Christian, Mississippi, and is part of the Pass Christian School District, which ranks 7th of 134 districts in the state. The school itself holds a 4-star rating and ranks 52nd of 377 Mississippi elementary schools (86th percentile), with an impressive upward trend — climbing from 98th in 2023-24 to 63rd in 2024-25 to 52nd in 2025-26.

DeLisle's standout subject is science: 95.4% of 5th graders scored proficient on the MAAP Science exam, far exceeding the state rate of 71.5% and rivaling top nearby schools like East Hancock Elementary (93.7%) and Lizana Elementary (98.1%). Upper-elementary academics are also strong — 4th grade math proficiency is 71.8% (vs. 51.5% statewide), and 5th grade ELA is 75.4% (vs. 55.8% statewide). The school benefits from a favorable 13.5:1 student-teacher ratio and a chronic absenteeism rate of 15.9%, well below the state average of 23.9%. About 58% of students qualify for free/reduced lunch, a lower rate than many neighboring schools.

The main area for growth is 3rd grade, particularly math, where only 44.9% of students scored proficient — below both the district (52.4%) and the state (48.8%). This creates an interesting split with Pass Christian Elementary School, the district's other elementary school, which is stronger in 3rd grade but trails DeLisle in 4th and 5th grade subjects. If DeLisle can strengthen its early elementary math instruction, it has the foundation — strong attendance, small classes, and impressive science outcomes — to move from a solid upper-middle-tier school into the top tier of Mississippi elementary schools.
