Summary

Stringer Attendance Center is a PK-12 public school in Stringer, MS, serving 579 students as part of the West Jasper School District, which ranks 47th out of 134 Mississippi districts. Located in a rural community, the school is most closely comparable to Mize Attendance Center and Taylorsville Attendance Center, both in the Smith County School District. While all three are small rural attendance centers, Stringer stands apart with its exceptional graduation rate and strong end-of-course exam performance.

Stringer's most impressive statistic is its 100% graduation rate for 2024–25, far exceeding Mize's 86.2%, Taylorsville's 68.8%, and the state average of 89.2%. The school has now beaten both its district and the state for four straight years. On state testing, Stringer posted a 63.3% average proficiency rate across all MAAP tests—roughly double Taylorsville's 31.5%—and outperformed Taylorsville on every single test given. End-of-course results were especially strong: 100% proficiency in U.S. History, 83.4% in Biology, and 80.4% in Algebra I. Stringer also edged past Mize in English language arts (54.3% to 53.4%), though Mize holds an advantage in math (70.8% vs. 65.5%) and science (72.5% vs. 66.9%).

Encouragingly, the newest 2025–26 data shows real momentum. English II proficiency jumped from 52.8% to 75.0%, 8th grade math climbed from 55.3% to 76.9%, and 5th grade science rose to 72.5%. With a low student-teacher ratio of 13.5 and a free/reduced lunch rate of 69.4%, Stringer appears to support students well despite economic challenges. The main area to monitor is chronic absenteeism, which sits at 22.8%—near the state average but higher than at Mize (16.0%) and Taylorsville (12.5%). Overall, Stringer is a dependable rural school with a standout graduation rate and clear academic momentum.
