Repton Junior High School

Summary:

Repton Junior High School is a small elementary school in Repton, Alabama, serving grades PK-8 with a total enrollment of 110 students. The school is part of the Conecuh County School District, which is ranked 115 out of 137 districts in Alabama and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Repton Junior High School faces significant challenges in improving its academic performance. The school has a significantly higher percentage of African American students (76.36%) compared to the state average, and a very high percentage of students (75.45%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage. Academically, the school has consistently underperformed compared to the state and county averages in various standardized assessments, with only 20% of 4th-grade students proficient or better in Mathematics, compared to the state average of 38.32%. While the school spends $13,663 per student, which is higher than the spending at nearby schools like Lyeffion Junior High School and Evergreen Elementary School, this has not translated into better academic outcomes.

Repton Junior High School's consistent underperformance, with a ranking between 430 and 575 out of 680-692 Alabama elementary schools over the past several years, suggests a persistent challenge in improving academic outcomes. The school's low performance is particularly pronounced for African American students and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds, ranking 301 out of 420 schools and 614 out of 670 schools, respectively, in 2023-2024. Addressing the unique needs of these student subgroups, as well as the underlying factors such as the school's location in a low-performing district and the racial and socioeconomic composition of the student body, will be crucial for the school's improvement.

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.
