Tremont Attendance Center

Summary:

Tremont Attendance Center is a small, alternative public school serving grades K-12 in the Itawamba County School District in Mississippi. With just 325 students, the school has a very homogeneous student population, with over 94% of students identifying as white, and an extremely high rate of over 99% free and reduced lunch recipients.

Academically, Tremont Attendance Center has a mixed performance record. While the school excels in some subject areas and grade levels, such as 4th grade ELA and math, as well as end-of-course exams in subjects like Algebra I and Biology, it struggles in others, particularly in 6th-8th grade ELA where proficiency rates lag behind the district and state averages. Interestingly, the school spends significantly more per student ($9,481) compared to nearby Belmont School ($8,849) and Mantachie Attendance Center ($7,298), despite having similar student demographics.

One notable difference is Tremont Attendance Center's relatively low student-teacher ratio of 10.9, compared to 12.7 at Mantachie Attendance Center and 12.6 at Belmont School and Smithville High School. This suggests the school may have more resources devoted to smaller class sizes, but the reasons for its uneven academic performance remain unclear and warrant further investigation.

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.
