Summary:
Coffeeville High School is a public high school in Coffeeville, Mississippi, serving 158 students in grades 9-12. The school faces significant academic challenges, with a low ranking of 212 out of 228 Mississippi high schools and a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, significantly underperforming nearby schools like Bruce High School and Grenada High.
Coffeeville High School's proficiency rates on standardized tests are well below state averages, with only 46.4% proficient in Algebra I, 20% in English II, 38.7% in Biology, and 28.1% in U.S. History, compared to state averages of 67.4%, 46.2%, 60.6%, and 70.8%, respectively. This underperformance is likely exacerbated by the school's high poverty rates, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, significantly higher than the nearby Calhoun County School District, Grenada School District, and Water Valley School District.
Despite the school's challenges, it does have a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 8.7 to 10.2 over the past three years, which could provide opportunities for more individualized attention and support. However, targeted interventions, such as tutoring, mentoring, and professional development for teachers, may be necessary to help improve student outcomes and address the school's declining academic performance.
