Best Public Schools in Fort Gaines, GA


Summary:

The city of Fort Gaines, Georgia is home to two public schools: Clay County Elementary and Clay County Middle School. Both schools serve a high-poverty student population, with 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. Unfortunately, the academic performance of these schools is quite low, with proficiency rates well below the state average on Georgia's standardized assessments.

Similarly, Clay County Middle School has a statewide ranking between 396-553 out of 567-588 Georgia middle schools, with a 0-2 star rating. Despite the low performance, the schools are spending a relatively high amount per student, with Clay County Middle School spending over $20,000 per student.

Overall, the data suggests that the educational system in the Clay County area is facing significant challenges. Both the elementary and middle schools are struggling to provide a high-quality education to their students, which is likely due to the high-poverty student population and limited resources available to the schools. Addressing these issues will require a comprehensive approach that addresses the underlying socioeconomic factors and provides targeted interventions and support to improve academic performance and resource allocation.
