Best Public Schools in Zip Code 39631

Summary:

The 39631 zip code in Mississippi has only one school, William Winans Middle School, which serves grades 6-8. This public middle school faces significant challenges, with consistently low academic performance and a student population that is predominantly African American and economically disadvantaged.

William Winans Middle School has struggled academically for years, with proficiency rates on standardized tests well below the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 9.7% of 6th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the state average of 39.7%. Similarly, in Mathematics, only 14.5% of 6th-grade students were proficient or better, compared to the state average of 51.8%. The school's performance has consistently placed it in the bottom 10% of middle schools in Mississippi.

The school's challenges are further compounded by its limited resources and high percentage of students (100%) eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a significant level of economic disadvantage among the student population. The school's per-student spending is below the state average, and the student-teacher ratio is slightly higher than the state average. These factors suggest that the school may be struggling to provide the necessary support and resources to help its students succeed academically.
