Summary

Alexander Elementary is a public elementary school in Greenville, South Carolina, serving 473 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Greenville 01 School District, which is ranked 11th out of 75 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being part of a high-performing district, Alexander Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom half of South Carolina elementary schools, with a ranking between 322 and 623 out of 619-644 schools over the past 10 years. The school's SchoolDigger rating has also been low, ranging from 0 to 3 stars out of 5 during this period. Alexander Elementary's performance on state assessments is particularly low for certain student subgroups, such as African American students, Hispanic students, and English Language Learners, who rank in the bottom 25-30% of their respective peer groups statewide. The school's performance for low socioeconomic status students is also concerning, ranking in the bottom 40-50% of schools in this category.

Interestingly, the nearby schools in the Greenville 01 district, such as Summit Drive Elementary, Westcliffe Elementary, and Hollis Academy, generally outperform Alexander Elementary across various metrics, including statewide rankings, academic achievement, and student group performance. This suggests that factors beyond just socioeconomic status may be contributing to Alexander Elementary's underperformance. Additionally, the school's chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 22.9% to 30.7% over the past few years, are significantly higher than the state and district averages, which may be an area of concern.
