Among the standout schools in Semmes are Allentown Elementary and Semmes Elementary, both of which have maintained a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and demonstrate strong performance in English language arts, outpacing the Mobile County and state averages. However, the data suggests that the schools in Semmes, particularly at the middle and high school levels, struggle more with mathematics proficiency compared to other subjects.
Overall, the schools in Semmes show a mix of strengths and challenges.

The high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients across the district indicate that the community faces socioeconomic factors that may impact resource allocation and student performance.
