Best Public Schools in New Hope, AL

Summary:

The city of New Hope, Alabama is home to two schools - New Hope High School and New Hope Elementary School. While both schools have seen a decline in their statewide rankings in recent years, they exhibit distinct strengths and challenges that parents should consider.

New Hope High School has a diverse student population, with a higher percentage of Native American students compared to the elementary school. However, the high school has struggled to match or exceed the Madison County and Alabama averages in key test score metrics, particularly in mathematics, science, and English. Additionally, the high school has a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a greater need for targeted support and resources.

In contrast, New Hope Elementary School has outperformed the county and state averages in several grade-level test score metrics, particularly in 5th and 6th grade English. The elementary school also has a higher percentage of White students and a lower free and reduced-price lunch rate compared to the high school. These factors suggest that the elementary school may be better equipped to provide a strong academic foundation for its students.
