Summary:
The 35179 zip code area is home to 5 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 2 middle schools, and 1 high school. These schools serve a predominantly white student population, with a significant economically disadvantaged student body as indicated by the high free/reduced lunch rates.
Among the standout schools in this area are West Point Middle School and Vinemont Middle School, which consistently rank among the top middle schools in the state. Both schools have impressive English proficiency rates, with over 50% of students meeting or exceeding standards. Vinemont Elementary School has also shown steady improvement, moving from a 3-star to a 4-star rating over the past 3 years and boasting math and English proficiency rates significantly above the county and state averages.
While the schools in this area generally perform well academically, there are some equity concerns due to the high free/reduced lunch rates, suggesting a need to ensure that all students have access to the resources and support they need to succeed. Additionally, the lack of racial diversity in the student populations may impact the educational experiences and perspectives of the students. The differences in spending per student across the grade levels also warrant further investigation to understand the rationale behind these allocations and how they impact student outcomes.
