Summary:
The 31827 zip code is home to a single alternative public school, Central Elementary/High School, which serves grades PK-12 and has a total enrollment of 408 students. This school stands out for its extremely high poverty levels, with a 100% free and reduced lunch rate, as well as its consistently low academic performance across all grade levels and subject areas compared to state averages.
Central Elementary/High School's test scores are significantly below the state averages, with only 21.4% of 8th graders scoring proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 44.7%. The school's 4-year graduation rate of 82.8% is also well below the state average, raising concerns about its ability to support students in completing their high school education.
Despite the high per-student spending of $16,429, the data suggests that the school may be facing systemic challenges in providing a quality education to its students. Addressing these issues will likely require a multi-faceted approach, including targeted interventions, additional resources, and a focus on improving teaching and learning at the school.
