Profile interpretation
What the reported data says about King Elementary
King Elementary is a public elementary school serving grades PK–05 in Montgomery. It is one of 50 current school records connected to Montgomery County. NCES reports 293 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 18th percentile for that peer group. Size describes the campus, not instructional quality.
The reported student–teacher ratio is 18.3:1, 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 Black (79.9%) and Hispanic or Latino (13.7%). English learners represent 7.6% of enrollment. Students served under IDEA represent 16.3%. 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.
