Best Elementary Schools in Zip Code 39110

Zip code 39110 in Madison, Mississippi is home to five public elementary schools serving approximately 3,007 students in grades K-5, all part of Madison County Schools, a district ranked #20 out of 134 in Mississippi. The five campuses include two K-2 schools (Mannsdale Elementary and Madison Avenue Elementary K2), two 3-5 upper elementary schools (Mannsdale Upper Elementary and Madison Avenue Upper), and one full K-5 school (Madison Station Elementary). This is one of the most academically elite areas in the state—every ranked school holds a 5-star rating and sits in the top 4% of Mississippi elementary schools.

Madison Station Elementary is the most consistently elite school in the group, currently ranked #6 in the state with the largest enrollment (980 students) and the lowest chronic absenteeism rate (5.2%) in the zip code. Madison Avenue Upper ranks #7 and posts the strongest current test scores in several key areas, including 91.3% proficiency in 3rd-grade math and 90.0% in 5th-grade science. Mannsdale Upper Elementary ranks #15—still in the top 4% statewide—but has shown some year-to-year slippage, particularly in 5th-grade math (down to 72.2%) and 5th-grade ELA (down to 70.7%). The K-2 schools, Mannsdale Elementary and Madison Avenue Elementary K2, do not receive official state rankings because MAAP testing begins in 3rd grade, but they are critical feeders to their upper-school counterparts.

Families in 39110 benefit from exceptionally low chronic absenteeism, ranging from 5.2% to 9.0% across all five schools—less than half the district rate of 20.4% and far below the state's 23.9%. Test scores run 25 to 40 percentage points above state averages in ELA and math, and all three tested schools exceed 88% proficiency in 5th-grade science compared to a 71.5% state average. Notably, Madison Avenue Upper has the highest free/reduced lunch rate among the upper schools (17.51%) yet outperforms Mannsdale Upper Elementary, which has a lower poverty rate, indicating that poverty is less predictive of academic outcomes in this relatively affluent community than it is statewide. For parents, this zip code offers access to some of the best public elementary education in Mississippi.
