Best Public Schools in Camilla, GA


Summary:

The city of Camilla, Georgia is home to three public schools serving grades K-12: Mitchell County High School, Mitchell County Primary School, and Mitchell County Middle School. Based on the available data, these schools are consistently underperforming compared to state averages across key metrics like test scores, graduation rates, and statewide rankings.

None of the three Camilla schools stand out as high-performing. All three are ranked in the bottom half of their respective school types in Georgia and have low 1 or 2 out of 5 star ratings from SchoolDigger. The schools' test scores on the Georgia Milestones assessments are well below the state average, and Mitchell County High School has a graduation rate of only 87.3%, which is below the Georgia average. Additionally, all three schools have 100% of their students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, indicating high levels of economic disadvantage in the community.

Despite the high spending per student, ranging from $11,476 to $14,809, the Camilla schools are not achieving strong academic outcomes. This raises questions about how resources are being allocated and utilized within the district. The persistent low performance across the schools, with little to no improvement over time, suggests the district is facing significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to its students. Addressing the root causes of the low performance, such as poverty, resource allocation, and instructional practices, will be crucial for the district to improve student outcomes.
