Summary:
The 36560 zip code area is home to a single public elementary school, Calcedeaver Elementary School, which serves grades PK-6 with a total enrollment of 229 students. The school has a diverse student population, with a high percentage of Native American students (52.4%) and a relatively low-income student body, as indicated by the 78.6% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch.
Academically, Calcedeaver Elementary School faces challenges, with its students consistently performing below the state and Mobile County averages in both mathematics and English language arts on the Summative Assessment. However, the school's performance in science for 4th-grade students is slightly better, with 42.86% proficient or better, compared to the state average of 43.54% and the county average of 39.33%. Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $12,691 and a low student-teacher ratio of 16:1, the academic data suggests that the available resources may not be translating into strong student outcomes.
While the school's current performance is below average, the data provides an opportunity to identify areas for improvement and implement targeted interventions to support student learning and achievement. With a unique student demographic and the potential for growth, Calcedeaver Elementary School may benefit from a deeper understanding of the factors influencing its performance and the development of strategies to address the identified challenges.
