District-Level NCES Analysis

Enterprise City operates 9 public schools serving 6,651 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Alabama. The school portfolio breaks down into 5 elementary, 2 middle, 1 high, 1 combined schools, a compact enough portfolio that families can compare every campus directly before they move, rent, or enrol. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Coffee County.

Per-pupil expenditure runs $11,045 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, in the lower half of 146 Alabama districts by per-pupil spending. See how Alabama compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 25.5% local, 58.3% state, and 16.2% federal, a state-revenue-heavy mix that insulates the district somewhat from local property-tax volatility, though it ties funding to state budget cycles. The district's equity score is 24/100, ranked #136 of 146 in Alabama against a state average of 51, notably less even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.

Academic infrastructure includes 1 of 9 schools offering Advanced Placement (9 AP courses district-wide), a 488.6:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 19.8% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 48.8% White, 21.8% Hispanic or Latino, 21.7% African American across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Rucker Boulevard Elementary School, with a diversity index of 70.3/100.

Its largest campus is Enterprise High School, enrolling 2,177 students (33% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Pinedale Elementary School, at 350 students, a 6x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.

Enterprise High School accounts for 32.7% of all Enterprise City student enrollment

That dominant concentration means Enterprise City-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.

Enterprise City school enrollment varies 6.2× across entities

Enterprise City school enrollment ranges from 350 students (lowest) to 2,177 students (highest), a spread of 1,827 students. That relatively narrow ratio reflects an unusually homogeneous campus portfolio, most districts have a wider mix of school sizes. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.

Enterprise City student-counselor ratio is 489:1 — high (typically associated with staffing constraints that limit per-student counselor time; CRDC data shows higher ratios cluster in larger urban systems)

student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Higher values may reflect larger urban scale or recent resource constraints that have widened the gap.

Enterprise City chronic absenteeism rate is 19.8% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism

chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Variation between sub-units within Enterprise City is typically wider than the Enterprise City-aggregate figure suggests.
