Summary:
The 39667 zip code area is home to 5 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 1 high school, and 1 alternative school. While the schools in this area face significant economic challenges, with all students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, one school stands out as a high performer - Salem Attendance Center.
Salem Attendance Center, an alternative school, boasts impressive test scores that outpace the district and state averages across multiple grade levels and subject areas. In contrast, Tylertown Elementary School and Tylertown High School generally lag behind their peers. However, Dexter Elementary School stands out for its more diverse student population, with a balanced racial makeup compared to the other schools in the area.
The data also reveals significant variations in spending per student and student-teacher ratios across the schools, which may indicate potential inequities in resource allocation within the Walthall County School District. While the economic challenges facing the area are evident, the standout performance of Salem Attendance Center and the diversity of Dexter Elementary School provide promising examples of what can be achieved with the right resources and support.
