What the reported data says about Concord Elementary School
Concord Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades KG–05 in Bessemer. It is one of 57 current school records connected to Jefferson County. NCES reports 400 students for 2024–25.
Among 696 elementary schools in Alabama with comparable records, this school is smaller than the reported median of 471 students. Its enrollment is at approximately the 37th percentile for that peer group. Size describes the campus, not instructional quality.
The reported student–teacher ratio is 17.6:1, close to the Alabama median of 16.9:1 for the same school level. This ratio uses total enrollment and teacher FTE; it is not an average classroom headcount and can be affected by special programs or part-time staffing.
The two largest reported race and ethnicity groups are White (56.3%) and Hispanic or Latino (25.3%). These figures help families understand who the school serves; they are not rating inputs.
The 2021–22 civil-rights collection reports access to gifted and talented programming. Program availability changes, so families should confirm the current catalog and participation rules directly with the school.
