High Schools in Bulloch County

The Bulloch County school district in Georgia is home to three high schools: Statesboro High School, Southeast Bulloch High School, and Portal Middle/High School. Based on the available data, Southeast Bulloch High School appears to be the standout performer in the district, ranking 117th out of 458 Georgia high schools and receiving a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Southeast Bulloch High School boasts the highest graduation rate at 86.2% and outperforms the Bulloch County and Georgia averages on most Milestones Assessment test scores, particularly in Algebra I, Biology, and United States History. In contrast, Statesboro High School has the highest percentage of free/reduced lunch recipients at 62.78%, suggesting potential socioeconomic challenges that may impact student learning and achievement.

While Southeast Bulloch High School's performance is commendable, the data also reveals areas for improvement across the district. There are still significant performance gaps compared to state averages, particularly in Algebra I and United States History. Additionally, the higher spending per student at Portal Middle/High School does not necessarily translate to better performance, indicating that factors beyond just funding, such as teaching quality, curriculum, and school culture, play a significant role in student outcomes.
