Best Public Schools in Zip Code 36009


Summary:

The 36009 zip code is home to a single alternative public school, Brantley High School, which serves grades PK-12 with a total enrollment of 556 students. The school's student population is predominantly White (65.47%), with a significant African American (25.9%) presence, as well as smaller Hispanic (2.7%) and Asian (1.26%) populations.

As an alternative school, Brantley High School appears to have unique challenges and opportunities. While the school's test scores in Mathematics, Science, and English Language Arts (ELA) are generally lower than the Crenshaw County and Alabama state averages, its strongest performance is in 3rd and 4th grade ELA, where proficiency rates exceed the county and state. However, the school's academic performance declines in higher grade levels, particularly in Mathematics. Additionally, Brantley High School has a high percentage of students (59.35%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

Despite the academic challenges, Brantley High School's student-teacher ratio of 14.7 is relatively low, potentially indicating smaller class sizes and more individualized attention for students. The school's spending per student for the 2018-2019 school year was $10,311, which may reflect the school's efforts to address the needs of its economically disadvantaged student population. Overall, the analysis of Brantley High School highlights the unique characteristics and challenges faced by an alternative school serving a predominantly economically disadvantaged student body, and suggests potential areas for further investigation and targeted interventions to support student success.
