Summary:
The city of Winston, Georgia is home to 3 schools - 2 elementary schools (Mason Creek Elementary and Winston Elementary) and 1 middle school (Mason Creek Middle School). These schools are part of the Douglas County school district, which is ranked 116th out of 203 districts in Georgia.
Based on the data, Winston Elementary stands out as a high-performing school, consistently ranking in the top 25% of Georgia elementary schools over the past 3 years and earning a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's test scores are significantly higher than the district and state averages across multiple subjects and grade levels. In contrast, Mason Creek Elementary and Mason Creek Middle School have more average performance, with 2-3 star ratings from SchoolDigger and test scores closer to the district and state averages.
The data also reveals that the schools serve economically disadvantaged student populations, with high free/reduced lunch rates, especially at Winston Elementary. This raises questions about equity in resource allocation and support for these high-need student communities. Additionally, the variation in middle school performance and the broader district-level challenges suggest there may be systemic issues impacting school performance in the area.
