Summary:
The city of Ramer, Alabama has only one school serving grades PK-8, DunbarRamer School, which is part of the Montgomery County School District. Unfortunately, DunbarRamer School appears to be one of the lowest-performing schools in the state, consistently ranking near the bottom of elementary schools in Alabama and receiving a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger for several years.
The school's student population is predominantly African American (58.06%) and has a high percentage (88.71%) of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. Despite its relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.2, DunbarRamer School's test scores are significantly below the county and state averages across all subjects and grade levels. For example, in 7th grade math, 0% of students at DunbarRamer were proficient or better, compared to 7.43% in the county and 21.03% statewide.
The combination of low test scores, high poverty rates, and poor overall performance raises concerns about the quality of education being provided at DunbarRamer School and the resources available to support student learning. Addressing the challenges faced by this school and its students will likely require a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach that addresses both academic and socioeconomic factors.
