Summary:
The city of Conyers, Georgia is home to three middle schools serving grades 6-8: Conyers Middle School, Edwards Middle School, and Memorial Middle School. These schools serve the Rockdale County school district and face challenges in academic performance compared to state averages.
Among the three schools, Edwards Middle School stands out as the highest performer, with the best statewide ranking, highest proficiency rates in core subjects, lowest percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients, and lowest student-teacher ratio. In contrast, the other two schools lag behind Edwards Middle School and the state averages in key metrics like math and English language arts proficiency.
The data reveals significant performance gaps between the Conyers middle schools and the Rockdale County and Georgia state averages, likely due to the high percentages of economically disadvantaged students across all three schools. While the schools face challenges, the data also suggests areas of potential improvement, particularly by replicating the success seen at Edwards Middle School. Targeted interventions and support tailored to the unique needs of these communities could help address the performance disparities and better serve the students of Conyers.
