Best Public Schools in Sumner, MS


Summary:

The city of Sumner, Mississippi has only one school, R H Bearden Elementary School, which serves students in grades K-6. The school is part of the West Tallahatchie School District, which is ranked 115th out of 130 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating.

R H Bearden Elementary School does not appear to be a standout school, as it has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Mississippi elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past three school years. The school's test scores are significantly below the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, with the percentage of students proficient or better in ELA and Math ranging from 2% to 57.1%. The school serves a predominantly low-income student population, with a 100% free/reduced lunch rate, and has a high concentration of African American students at 98.42%.

Despite the school's above-average spending per student ($11,492) and lower-than-average student-teacher ratio (11.4), these inputs do not seem to be translating into improved academic performance. The data suggests that R H Bearden Elementary School is facing systemic challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students, and targeted interventions and support may be needed to address the underlying issues and improve educational outcomes for the community.
