High Schools in Hollandale School District


Summary:

The Hollandale School District in Mississippi is home to a single high school, Simmons High School, which serves a predominantly African American student population of 155 students. While the school's performance on state assessments is generally below the state average, it excels in certain subject areas like Biology and U.S. History, where proficiency rates exceed the state benchmarks.

Simmons High School faces significant socioeconomic challenges, with 100% of its students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests that the school serves a population with substantial economic disadvantages, which may contribute to its academic performance. However, the school's per-student spending is higher than the state average, and it has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 8.3, indicating that resource allocation may not be the sole factor influencing the school's outcomes.

The data suggests that the challenges faced by Simmons High School are likely reflective of broader systemic issues within the Hollandale School District. Addressing the socioeconomic factors and examining the effective use of resources within the district may be crucial in improving educational outcomes for the students at Simmons High School and the district as a whole.
