Bryant School

Summary:

Bryant School is an elementary school located in Bryant, Alabama, serving grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 132 students. The school is part of the Jackson County School District, which is ranked 59 out of 137 districts in Alabama and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bryant School has a significantly higher percentage of white students (87.12%) compared to the surrounding schools, which have more diverse student populations. The school has shown strong performance in English/Language Arts, with 3rd-6th grade students consistently outperforming the Jackson County and Alabama state averages in proficiency rates. However, the school's math proficiency rates have been more variable, with some grades performing above the district and state, while others lag behind. Bryant School also has a relatively high percentage of students (around 56%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds compared to the state average.

While Bryant School outperforms the Jackson County and Alabama state averages in some subject areas, it often lags behind the nearby Rosalie Elementary, Stevenson Elementary, and Flat Rock School in terms of test scores and statewide rankings. Additionally, Bryant School's statewide ranking has steadily declined over the past several years, suggesting the school may be struggling to maintain its academic performance compared to other schools in the state.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
