State Specialty Schools II- Fulton Leadership Academy

The State Specialty Schools II- Fulton Leadership Academy district in Georgia contains a single public charter high school, Fulton Leadership Academy, which serves grades 6-12.

Fulton Leadership Academy has a four-year graduation rate of 94.1%, which is a notable strength and significantly exceeds the state average. However, the school's test scores on the Georgia Milestones Assessments are consistently below the state averages across multiple subjects and grade levels, suggesting a need to focus on improving academic achievement and student learning outcomes. With over 57% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, the school serves a population with significant economic challenges, which may contribute to the lower academic performance and indicate a need for additional resources and support.

The school's spending of $13,631 per student is lower than the state average, which could be a factor in the school's academic performance. On a positive note, Fulton Leadership Academy has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12.2 to 1, which could be a strength in supporting student learning and engagement. Overall, the data suggests that Fulton Leadership Academy faces some challenges in academic performance, but also has strengths in its high graduation rate and favorable student-teacher ratio, indicating the need for targeted interventions and support to address the school's underperformance on standardized tests and support the needs of its economically disadvantaged student population.
