Summary:
The State Specialty Schools II- Statesboro STEAM Academy district in Georgia contains a single high school, Statesboro STEAM Academy, which serves students in grades 9-12.
Statesboro STEAM Academy stands out for its high four-year graduation rate of 95.0%, significantly exceeding the state average. However, the school's academic performance on standardized tests is mixed, with proficiency rates often falling below state averages, particularly in core subjects like English Language Arts and Mathematics. The school's statewide ranking has also declined in recent years, dropping from 129th out of 429 Georgia high schools in 2021-2022 to 277th out of 458 in 2023-2024.
Despite the school's academic challenges, it appears to be allocating its resources efficiently, with a lower student-teacher ratio and slightly higher per-student spending compared to the state average. The school also serves a population with a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, which may contribute to the academic performance. Addressing these socioeconomic factors and building on the school's strengths in resource allocation could be key to driving future improvements at Statesboro STEAM Academy.
