North Bolivar Cons School District


Summary:

The North Bolivar Cons School District in Mississippi consists of 3 schools - 2 elementary schools (I T Montgomery Elementary School and Brooks Elementary School) and 1 high school (Northside High School). The district serves a predominantly African American student population, with all schools having over 97% Black enrollment. While Brooks Elementary stands out as the highest-performing school in the district, ranking 200 out of 390 Mississippi elementary schools, the overall academic performance across the district is consistently low, with schools underperforming state averages on standardized tests.

The economic disadvantage in the district is evident, with all schools having 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This factor likely contributes to the academic challenges faced by the schools. Additionally, there appears to be a funding disparity, as Northside High School spends significantly more per student ($11,239) compared to the elementary schools ($7,764 at Brooks Elementary). Despite these challenges, the standout performance of Brooks Elementary in certain areas suggests that there is potential for improvement across the district if best practices and successful strategies can be identified and replicated.

Overall, the North Bolivar Cons School District faces significant challenges, including racial imbalance, consistently low academic performance, high levels of economic disadvantage, and potential funding disparities. Addressing these issues will require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to improve educational outcomes for the students in the district.
