The school is part of the Greenville Public Schools district, which is ranked 124 out of 130 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Trigg Elementary's student population is predominantly African American, with 98.8% of students identifying as such in the 2022-2023 school year.

Trigg Elementary's test scores, as measured by the MAAP (Mississippi Academic Assessment Program), are consistently lower than the state and district averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 37.8% of 3rd graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 57.7% statewide. In mathematics, the 5th-grade proficiency rate was just 16.2%, compared to 53.7% for the state. The school's statewide ranking among Mississippi elementary schools has fluctuated over the years, but it has consistently been in the bottom quartile, ranking as low as 395 out of 406 schools in 2016-2017. In the most recent 2023-2024 school year, the school ranked 332 out of 390 elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Trigg Elementary has a 100% free and reduced lunch rate, indicating that all of its students come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. When comparing Trigg Elementary to other nearby schools in the Greenville Public Schools district, it becomes clear that the school is underperforming. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, Trigg's 3rd-grade English Language Arts proficiency rate of 37.8% was significantly lower than the rates at Boyd Elementary (53%) and Akin Elementary (44.2%). This suggests that the challenges facing Trigg Elementary may be specific to the Greenville Public Schools district and its broader educational ecosystem.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
