Wilcox County


Summary:

The schools in Wilcox County, Alabama serve a predominantly African American student population facing significant economic challenges, with all schools reporting extremely high free/reduced lunch rates. While the district spends more per student than the state average, the schools consistently underperform on statewide assessments, suggesting systemic issues that need to be addressed.

Among the five schools in the district, F S Ervin Elementary School stands out as the highest-performing, ranking 547 out of 684 Alabama elementary schools and earning 1 out of 5 SchoolDigger stars. It boasts some of the strongest test scores in the district, particularly in 3rd grade English and 6th grade English. The lone middle school, Camden School of Arts Technology, also performs relatively well, ranking 368 out of 442 Alabama middle schools and earning 1 out of 5 SchoolDigger stars.

However, the majority of Wilcox County schools, including Wilcox Central High School, J E Hobbs Elementary School, and ABC Elementary, struggle with consistently low performance on statewide assessments, with test scores well below the Alabama averages across all grade levels and subject areas. Addressing these systemic challenges will be crucial to improving educational outcomes for the students of Wilcox County.
