Best Public Schools in Quitman, GA


Summary:

The city of Quitman, Georgia is home to 4 schools, including 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools (one of which is an alternative school). The schools in this area face significant academic challenges, with proficiency rates on state assessments well below the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas.

Among the standout schools, Brooks County High School has the highest 4-year graduation rate at 98.1%, which is significantly higher than the state average. However, its academic performance on state assessments is relatively low compared to the state, indicating room for improvement. In contrast, Delta Innovative School, the alternative high school, has the lowest student enrollment at 88 students and the lowest academic performance, with proficiency rates well below the state and county averages.

Across the district, the schools in Quitman serve a high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with 96.59% to 96.9% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch. This suggests a need for targeted interventions and support to address the impacts of poverty on student learning and achievement. Additionally, the relatively low student-teacher ratios, ranging from 11:1 to 14.1:1, indicate that class size may not be the primary driver of the academic challenges faced by these schools, and other factors, such as teacher quality, curriculum, and school resources, may be more significant contributors to the low performance.
