Summary:
The city of Ocilla, Georgia is home to three schools that serve students from elementary through high school: Irwin County Elementary School, Irwin County High School, and Irwin County Middle School. These schools, part of the Irwin County district, serve a community with significant economic challenges, as evidenced by the high free and reduced lunch rates across all three schools.
Among the standout schools, Irwin County Middle School ranks in the top half of Georgia middle schools and performs well on 8th grade English Language Arts assessments. Irwin County High School also stands out, ranking in the top half of Georgia high schools and achieving a high 4-year graduation rate. However, the schools generally perform below the state average on the Milestones Assessments, suggesting a need for targeted academic interventions.
Despite the economic challenges faced by the community, the schools in Ocilla, Georgia have maintained a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger over the past few years. With relatively low student-teacher ratios, the schools have the potential to leverage this resource to drive better outcomes for students. Tracking the schools' ranking and performance trends over time could provide valuable insights into areas for growth and strategies for improvement.
