Summary:
The city of Tiger, Georgia is home to 4 schools serving students from elementary through high school, all part of the Rabun County school district. The standout performer in the district is Rabun County High School, which has consistently ranked among the top high schools in the state with a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for the past three years. The school boasts a high graduation rate of 91.7% and strong performance on state assessments, particularly in Algebra I, Biology, and United States History.
Rabun County Middle School also stands out as a strong performer, ranking in the top third of Georgia middle schools for the past three years and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. Across the district, the schools generally perform above the state average on the Georgia Milestones assessments, with Rabun County High School and Rabun County Middle School showing particularly impressive results.
However, the district faces some challenges, with relatively high rates of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 47.63% at Rabun County High School to 58.77% at Rabun County Middle School. This suggests a need to address issues of equity and support for economically disadvantaged students. Despite these challenges, the district's higher-than-average spending per student, ranging from $11,083 to $13,733, appears to be translating into strong academic outcomes, particularly at the high school level.
