$8,242 spent per student in this school on day-to-day operations Median of the district's 8 schools: $8,611 per student

Spending per student

  • Instruction $5,839
  • Support services $2,072
  • Food service and other $331

Data source: National Center for Education Statistics, School-Level Finance Survey, school year 2022-23 (provisional). This is the spending the district assigned to this school, per its enrollment that year (807 students). Costs the district did not assign to any school are left out, so it is usually lower than the district's own per-student figure, and states assign costs differently: compare it with other schools in the same district, not across states. In Mississippi, 24% of school spending that year was not assigned to any school. It leaves out construction, equipment and debt.
