Summary:

Shiloh Point Elementary is a high-performing public elementary school in Cumming, Georgia, serving 1,140 students in grades PK-5 and part of the Forsyth County school district, which is ranked 10th out of 203 districts in the state.

Shiloh Point Elementary has consistently been ranked among the top elementary schools in Georgia, maintaining a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past several years. The school's academic performance is exceptional, with students significantly outperforming the Forsyth County and Georgia state averages in the Milestones Assessment for English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science across all grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, Shiloh Point's 5th-grade students achieved 78.7% proficiency in ELA, compared to 66.4% in Forsyth County and 48.2% statewide. The school's low percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at only 6.4%, suggests a relatively affluent student population, which may contribute to its academic success.

The school's higher per-student spending, at $9,362 in the 2018-2019 school year, may also contribute to its ability to provide resources and support for its students, leading to their academic success.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
