Summary:

The 39772 zip code in Mississippi is home to a single school, Weir Elementary School, which serves grades PK-6 and is part of the Choctaw County School District. With a total enrollment of 126 students, Weir Elementary School has faced fluctuating performance, with its statewide ranking ranging from 124th out of 390 Mississippi elementary schools in 2023-2024 to 206th out of 377 in 2022-2023.

Weir Elementary School's academic performance on state assessments (MAAP) varies across grade levels and subject areas, with proficiency rates ranging from 25% in 3rd grade ELA to 80% in 6th grade Math. Compared to the Choctaw County School District and the state of Mississippi, the school's proficiency rates are generally lower, with some exceptions. The school serves a high-poverty population, with 97.62% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in 2023-2024, and has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 9.5 to 1.

One significant concern for Weir Elementary School is its high chronic absenteeism rate of 23.9% in 2022-2023, which may be impacting student learning and overall school performance. Addressing the root causes of chronic absenteeism and implementing targeted interventions to improve academic achievement across all grade levels and subject areas should be a priority for the school and the Choctaw County School District.
