Best Public Schools in Griffin, GA

Summary:

The Griffin, Georgia area is home to 18 schools, including 11 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, and 3 high schools, all part of the Griffin-Spalding County school district. While a few standout schools, like Crescent Road Elementary, perform above the district and state averages, many others struggle with proficiency rates well below state levels.

The data reveals significant disparities in academic performance across the district. Carver Road Middle School and Rehoboth Road Middle School stand out with higher Algebra I proficiency rates, while Griffin High School lags behind in American Literature and Composition. The district's overall 1-star rating from SchoolDigger suggests systemic challenges in providing quality education.

Poverty appears to be a significant factor, with most schools serving high percentages of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. Disparities in per-student spending and student-teacher ratios across the district may also contribute to the performance gaps. Addressing these resource inequities and implementing targeted interventions could be crucial for improving outcomes for all students in the Griffin-Spalding County school district.
