Greenville High School

Summary:

Greenville High School is a public high school in Greenville, Alabama, serving 659 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Butler County School District, which is ranked 98 out of 137 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Greenville High School faces significant academic challenges, with consistently low standardized test scores compared to state and county averages. In the 2023-2024 school year, only 6.9% of 11th-grade students were proficient or better in Mathematics, far below the state average of 23.12%. The school also has a high percentage of African American students (68.44%) and a very high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch (73.17% to 84.07%), indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. As a result, Greenville High School has consistently ranked in the bottom third of Alabama high schools, with a 1 or 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Interestingly, a nearby school, Calhoun High School, which also serves a high-poverty, predominantly African American student population, performs even worse academically than Greenville High School. Additionally, Greenville High School's performance varies significantly among different student subgroups, with white students and female students outperforming their African American and male counterparts, respectively. The school's lower per-student spending and higher student-teacher ratio may also contribute to its academic challenges.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

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.
