The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance, with Horseshoe Bend High School and Reeltown Elementary School standing out as the strongest performers, while Dadeville High School lags behind, particularly in math.

Racial disparities are evident, with Horseshoe Bend High School and Reeltown Elementary having predominantly white student bodies, while Dadeville Elementary and Dadeville High School have a higher percentage of African American students. Socioeconomic challenges are also prevalent, as evidenced by the high rates of free and reduced-price lunch recipients across the schools, ranging from 57.31% at Horseshoe Bend High School to 78.74% at Dadeville High School.

Funding disparities are also observed, with spending per student varying from $7,425 at Reeltown Elementary to $11,041 at Reeltown High School.
