Best Public Schools in Cusseta, GA

Summary:

The city of Cusseta, Georgia is home to three schools: Chattahoochee County High School, Chattahoochee County Education Center (an elementary school), and Chattahoochee County Middle School. These schools serve students across the Chattahoochee County district.

Chattahoochee County High School stands out with a strong 96.7% 4-year graduation rate and outperformance on Algebra I, Biology, and United States History end-of-course assessments compared to the state average. The school has also improved its statewide ranking from 247th to 195th over the past two years. In contrast, Chattahoochee County Middle School has had mixed academic results, with some grades performing above the state average and others below.

The Chattahoochee County Education Center elementary school has maintained a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger and outperformed the state average in several 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade Milestones Assessments, particularly in Mathematics. However, both the Education Center and the Middle School have very high free/reduced lunch rates, indicating high levels of student poverty in the district. This may require additional resources and support to address the needs of the student population.
