Elementary Schools in North Bolivar Cons School District


Summary:

The North Bolivar Cons School District in Mississippi is home to two elementary schools serving students from pre-kindergarten through 4th grade. While both schools face significant challenges, with high poverty rates and predominantly African American student populations, Brooks Elementary School stands out as a relative bright spot in the district.

Brooks Elementary outperforms its counterpart, I T Montgomery Elementary School, across a range of academic metrics. In the 2023-2024 school year, 80.6% of 4th graders at Brooks were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to just 58% for the district and 57.1% statewide. Similarly, 76.9% of 3rd graders at Brooks were proficient or better in Math, versus 49% for the district and 53.3% statewide. This strong academic performance has earned Brooks Elementary a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger, while I T Montgomery is rated just 1-star.

The reasons behind the performance gap between the two schools are not entirely clear, as both serve similar student populations with high poverty rates. However, the data suggests that factors beyond just student demographics, such as teaching practices, resources, or school leadership, may be contributing to Brooks Elementary's success. Investigating these factors could provide valuable insights for improving educational outcomes across the North Bolivar Cons School District as a whole, which currently ranks 106 out of 130 districts in Mississippi.
