State report card
Alabama grades every public school from A to F each year. The grade comes from a 100-point score built from students’ achievement and growth on state tests in English language arts and math, chronic absenteeism (the share of students who missed 18 or more days), progress in English language proficiency and, for high schools, graduation rate and college and career readiness, according to the Alabama State Department of Education’s report card rules. Alabama does not use CCRPI, the Georgia score.
2024-25 grade: D, 63 points. The 2023-24 card gave Wilkerson Middle an F with 57 points. Birmingham City Schools as a whole earned a C, with 77 points, up from 74.
| Indicator | 2024-25 score |
|---|---|
| Academic achievement (ELA and math tests) | 34.08 |
| Academic growth | 80.51 |
| Progress in English language proficiency | 31.43 |
| Chronic absenteeism (lower is better) | 5.68% of students |
The 2024-25 card lists Wilkerson Middle as a Comprehensive Support and Improvement School, a federal designation the state assigns from its accountability results.
