Summary:

Zip code 39666 is served by a single high school, North Pike High School, which spans grades 9 through 12 in Summit, Mississippi, and is part of the North Pike Schools district. Because this is the only high school in the area, all comparisons are made against state averages and the school’s own recent history rather than against local peers.

North Pike High School has shown a clear downward trend in its statewide ranking over the past three years, falling from 81st (64th percentile) in 2023–2024 to 108th (53rd percentile) in 2024–2025, and now to 115th out of 224 schools (49th percentile) in 2025–2026. This means the school has slipped from comfortably above the state median to right at it. Chronic absenteeism is a notable concern, with 26.0% of students chronically absent in 2023–2024, higher than both the district (22.9%) and the state (23.9%). The graduation rate of 86.4% also trails the state average of 89.2%. Academically, results are mixed: U.S. History was a clear strength in 2024–2025 (73.6% proficient, +3.9 vs. state), and Algebra I improved significantly to 66.9% proficient in 2025–2026, slightly above the state average. However, English II proficiency remains weak at 45.6% (−3.7 vs. state), and Biology scores are volatile—jumping from 71.1% in 2024–2025 to 60.1% in 2025–2026, a swing that suggests cohort effects or changing conditions rather than a stable pattern.

On a positive note, the student–teacher ratio at North Pike High School is a favorable 13.5 to 1, which means smaller class sizes and potentially more individualized attention. This could be an asset for addressing the school’s challenges in English and Biology. Overall, North Pike High School has some bright spots—particularly U.S. History, a solid Algebra I result, and a low student–teacher ratio—but families should be aware of the declining ranking, higher-than-average absenteeism, and graduation rate that falls short of the state. No free/reduced lunch data is available, so the socioeconomic context remains unclear, but the combination of rising absenteeism and slipping test scores points to systemic issues that may need attention.
