Best Public Schools in Sardis, MS


Summary:

The city of Sardis, Mississippi is home to two schools: North Panola High School and Green Hill Intermediate, both of which serve students in the North Panola School District. Unfortunately, the data paints a concerning picture, as both schools are struggling to provide quality education to their predominantly African American and economically disadvantaged student populations.

Neither school stands out as a high performer, with both North Panola High School and Green Hill Intermediate scoring significantly below state averages on standardized tests. North Panola High School has been ranked in the bottom half of Mississippi high schools for the past three years, with a 1-star rating, while Green Hill Intermediate has been ranked in the bottom quarter of elementary schools, with a 0-star rating. The schools' test scores, particularly in core subjects like English Language Arts and Mathematics, are alarmingly low, with only 19.3% of North Panola High School students and 13% of Green Hill Intermediate students scoring proficient or better.

Factors such as the high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch (100% at both schools) and the racial disparities in the student populations suggest that socioeconomic and equity issues may be contributing to the academic challenges faced by these schools. While North Panola High School spends more per student than Green Hill Intermediate, the resources do not appear to be translating into improved student outcomes, highlighting the need for a more comprehensive approach to addressing the underlying issues and ensuring that all students in Sardis have access to a high-quality education.
