Choctaw County


Summary:

The schools in Choctaw County, Alabama serve students from elementary through high school, with 2 elementary schools and 2 high schools in the district. The data reveals significant challenges faced by these schools, particularly in terms of academic performance and racial disparities.

While Southern Choctaw Elementary School stands out with a more balanced racial makeup, higher test scores, and a better ranking compared to Choctaw County Elementary, the overall academic performance across the district is consistently low, with all schools performing below the state averages in test scores. The high rates of free and reduced lunch recipients, coupled with the relatively low spending per student, may be contributing factors to the schools' challenges.

At the high school level, Southern Choctaw High School also outperforms Choctaw County High School in several subjects and has a higher ranking, but both schools still struggle to meet state standards. The significant racial disparities, with Choctaw County High School and Choctaw County Elementary having a much higher percentage of African American students, suggest the need for a more equitable and inclusive approach to education in the district.
