The 36442 zip code in Alabama is home to a single public high school, Florala High School, which serves grades 7-12 with a total enrollment of 218 students.

Florala High School's student population is predominantly White (83.49%), with smaller percentages of African American (12.84%) and Hispanic (2.75%) students. The school also serves a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 73.85% of the student body eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Despite the school's above-average per-student spending, its academic performance has been consistently low, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger and a statewide ranking of 208 out of 378 high schools in the 2023-2024 school year.
