Summary:
The East Tallahatchie Consol School District in Mississippi is home to a single high school, Charleston High School, which serves a predominantly African American student population of 275. Despite facing significant economic disadvantages, with a 100% free and reduced-lunch rate, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio and higher-than-average per-student spending.
Charleston High School's academic performance is mixed, with strong results in Algebra I but much lower proficiency rates in English II, Biology, and U.S. History compared to state averages. The school's statewide ranking has fluctuated in recent years, ranging from 145th out of 226 high schools to 165th out of 228, with a 1- or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. This instability in the school's performance and ranking may indicate the need for ongoing monitoring and improvement efforts.
Despite the challenges faced by Charleston High School, the district appears to be allocating significant resources to support the school and its students. However, the school's overwhelmingly African American student population suggests the need to address underlying socioeconomic factors and ensure equitable access to educational opportunities for all students in the East Tallahatchie Consol School District.
