Best Public Schools in Calera, AL


Summary:

The city of Calera, Alabama is home to 3 schools that serve students from elementary through high school. The schools include Calera High, Calera Intermediate School, and Calera Elementary. These schools serve a diverse student population, with a mix of White, African American, and Hispanic students. While the schools face some academic challenges, there are also areas of strength that stand out.

Calera High has a relatively diverse student body and has shown some improvement in test scores over the past few years, particularly in Mathematics. However, the school's overall test scores still lag behind the Shelby County and Alabama state averages. Calera Intermediate School stands out for its strong English Language Arts scores, but its Mathematics and Science scores are below the district and state averages. All three schools have high free and reduced lunch rates, indicating a significant population of economically disadvantaged students.

Across the Calera school district, the diverse student populations and varying academic performance present both challenges and opportunities. The high rates of economic disadvantage may require additional resources and support to ensure all students have access to quality education. Additionally, the relatively high student-teacher ratios at the schools could be an area of focus for the district to improve the educational experience for students.
