Summary:
The 38847 zip code is home to a single elementary school, Fairview Attendance Center, which serves grades K-6 and has a total enrollment of 134 students. The school is part of the Itawamba County School District, which is ranked 40 out of 130 school districts in Mississippi and has a 3-star rating.
Fairview Attendance Center appears to be a relatively strong-performing school within its district and the state of Mississippi. The school has consistently high performance on MAAP (Mississippi Academic Assessment Program) tests, with several grade levels scoring above the district and state averages in English Language Arts and Mathematics. Additionally, the school's 5th-grade students have shown strong performance in Science, with 75% proficient or better, compared to 66.5% for the district and 66.3% for the state. The school also maintains a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.6, which may contribute to its academic success.
However, the school does face some challenges, including a relatively high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.9% and a high percentage of students (82.84%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic need among the student population. These factors may impact the school's overall academic performance and require targeted interventions and support to address the unique needs of its student body.
