While the district as a whole is ranked 113 out of 203 in Georgia and has a 2-star rating, a few standout schools in Moultrie are performing exceptionally well.

Sunset Elementary School has consistently ranked in the top 30% of Georgia elementary schools, earning a 4-star rating. Its test scores are significantly higher than the district and state averages, particularly in 5th grade English Language Arts and 3rd-5th grade Math. Similarly, Wright Elementary School has performed in the top 20% of Georgia elementary schools, with above-average test scores across multiple grade levels and subjects.

However, the data also reveals significant disparities in academic performance across the Moultrie schools. Several institutions, such as Cox Elementary, struggle with proficiency rates as low as 10.8-25% in English Language Arts and Math, well below state averages. This variation in outcomes may be linked to the high poverty levels, with all schools having free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 85.24% to 97.28%. Addressing these inequities through targeted interventions and equitable funding could be crucial to improving educational outcomes for all students in the Moultrie area.
