Source differences and identity notes
The official school uses SPARK Academy at Cowart Elementary, while the dated NCES directory uses James L Cowart Elementary School. The shared Cowart identity, Athens City operator, matching address and phone support this source-qualified association; no historical rename or program-conversion claim is inferred. West/W and Street/St are ordinary address abbreviations, not different campuses.
Dated public-school directory information
The NCES 2025–2026 preliminary directory (release 0a, May 6, 2026) reports James L Cowart Elementary School as open, in Athens City school district, serving prekindergarten through grade 3. Its dated physical address is 1701 W Hobbs St, Athens, AL 35611. NCES school ID: 010012001474; Alabama school ID: AL-107-0050. NCES district ID: 0100120; Alabama district ID: AL-107. The attached grade classification reflects that dated directory, not a guarantee of the current or a future grade span.
Reported enrollment: 2024–2025
NCES reports 332 students in 2024–2025 (CCD Final 1a, Education Unit Total). NCES school membership source. This historical total does not establish current enrollment, classroom size, available places or school quality.
Dated map reference
The map point comes from NCES EDGE Public School Locations 2024–2025: an estimated school-building location associated with this exact school ID and the dated physical address. The official address agrees after ordinary street and directional abbreviation expansion; any phone or naming differences are described above, not treated as evidence of a campus move. Its positional accuracy distance is not supplied. View the dated estimated school point. This is not a surveyed entrance, current campus-boundary certification or attendance boundary. Confirm directions with the school.
Enrollment and location caution
The published Athens postal address does not establish municipal limits. The Limestone County classification is supported by the dated exact-ID EDGE county code and retained county polygon, not a current campus survey. A school location, county classification or nearby-home listing does not establish attendance eligibility for an address. Confirm attendance boundaries, enrollment requirements and programs directly with the district. No school-quality rating or housing recommendation is supplied.
