Summary:
The Coffeeville School District in Mississippi has only one high school, Coffeeville High School, which serves a predominantly African American student population of 158 students. Despite the district's relatively high spending per student and low student-teacher ratio, Coffeeville High School has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Mississippi high schools, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Coffeeville High School's academic performance is a significant concern, with proficiency rates on state assessments well below the state average in all core subjects, including Algebra I (46.4% vs. 67.4%), English II (20% vs. 46.2%), Biology (38.7% vs. 60.6%), and U.S. History (28.1% vs. 70.8%). The school's performance has remained stagnant or declined over the past few years, indicating a lack of progress in addressing the underlying issues and improving student outcomes.
The high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (100%) suggests that the school serves a predominantly low-income population, which may contribute to the academic challenges. While the district's spending per student is higher than the state average, the resources do not appear to be effectively utilized or targeted to address the specific needs of the student population, as evidenced by the consistently poor academic performance of Coffeeville High School.
