Best Public Schools in Manchester, GA


Summary:

The city of Manchester, Georgia is home to three public schools serving grades K-12: Mountain View Elementary School, Manchester High School, and Manchester Middle School. These schools, which are part of the Meriwether County district, face significant challenges in providing a high-quality education to their students.

None of the Manchester schools can be considered standouts based on the available data. All three schools have received low statewide rankings and ratings, with each being rated just 1 out of 5 stars by SchoolDigger. Proficiency rates on state assessments are alarmingly low across the board, with most grades and subjects falling well below county and state averages. For example, at Mountain View Elementary, only 17.1% of 3rd graders were proficient in ELA, compared to 38.4% statewide.

The Manchester schools also serve predominantly economically disadvantaged student populations, with free and reduced-price lunch rates ranging from 96.28% to 98.94% across the three campuses. Despite similar per-student spending amounts and student-teacher ratios, the schools have struggled to improve student outcomes over time, maintaining their low rankings and ratings for several years. Significant and sustained efforts will be needed to address the systemic challenges facing the Manchester school district and provide more equitable educational opportunities for the community.
