Summary

Stringer Attendance Center is an alternative public school serving grades PK-12 in the West Jasper Consolidated Schools district. With 585 students and a student-teacher ratio of around 12.7, the school is ranked 41 out of 130 school districts in Mississippi and is rated 3 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger.

Stringer Attendance Center stands out for its consistently high 4-year graduation rates, ranging from 88.9% to 94.0% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average of around 70%. The school also outperforms the state and its district on a majority of the MAAP assessments across grade levels and subjects, with proficiency rates often 10-20 percentage points higher than the state averages. Despite these strong academic results, the school has relatively high chronic absenteeism rates, an area they may want to focus on to improve student engagement.

When compared to the nearby Mize Attendance Center and Taylorsville Attendance Center (both in the Smith County School District), Stringer Attendance Center outperforms these schools on most academic measures, suggesting it is providing a stronger educational experience for its students. The school's ability to maintain strong academic performance despite serving a high-need student population, with an extremely high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, is commendable.
