Amanda Elzy High School

Amanda Elzy High School (AEHS) is a high school in unincorporated Leflore County, Mississippi, south of Greenwood, and part of the Greenwood-Leflore Consolidated School District.

As of the 2013–2014 school year, it had 488 students in grades 9–12 and 36.37 teachers (full-time equivalent).

Its service area includes Minter City, Money, Sidon, and Schlater.

The school was named in 1959 in honor of Amanda Elzy, a pioneering black educator.

It was a part of the Leflore County School District until that district's merger into Greenwood-Leflore Consolidated School District on July 1, 2019.

In the 2012–2013 school year, the demographic profile of the student body was 492 black students, 5 Hispanic students and 2 white students.

In 2014, its students were reported as 100% "economically disadvantaged."

By 2010 the school began to only issue detentions for physical altercations, with a choice of either Saturdays or after school, instead of all day in-school suspensions.
