The MDE evaluates school districts and individual schools using a letter grade system from A to F, based on key performance indicators such as test scores and graduation rates.
This year’s results highlight the exceptional performance of Attala County and Kosciusko, placing them among the state’s highest-performing districts.
Statewide, 87% of school districts achieved an A, B, or C rating for the 2024-2025 school year, a significant improvement from the 62% that earned these grades in the 2015-2016 school year.

These top grades mark a milestone for both districts, reinforcing their status as leaders in Mississippi’s educational landscape.
