Every school with a current state rank lands in the top 48 of its category, making this one of the strongest public school clusters in Mississippi.

Germantown High School outperforms Madison Central in Algebra I (77.1% vs. 51.7%), Biology (65.6% vs. 45.5%), and graduation rate (97.3% vs. 94.0%), yet Madison Central holds a higher state rank thanks to strong English II and U.S. History scores. Germantown Middle has also risen dramatically, from #25 to #7 in the state, with Algebra I proficiency at 99.1%. Rosa Scott, labeled an alternative school but serving as a 9th-grade academy, posts excellent scores and the lowest student-teacher ratio in the zip code at 10.2:1.

The biggest red flag is high school chronic absenteeism: 42.3% at Madison Central and 40.1% at Germantown High, roughly double the district average of 20.4% and far above the state's 23.9%. Elementary and middle schools, by contrast, run between 5% and 11%. The area is relatively affluent, with a weighted free/reduced lunch rate near 21%, and both high schools exceed state graduation averages. Overall, zip code 39110 offers parents an exceptional range of high-performing schools, with the strongest concerns being high school attendance and Madison Central's unexpectedly low STEM proficiency.
