Cobb County


Summary:

The Cobb County school district in Georgia encompasses 110 schools, including 66 elementary schools, 26 middle schools, 17 high schools, and 1 alternative school. The district is home to a mix of high-performing and underperforming schools, with significant disparities in academic outcomes across the system.

Several schools stand out as exemplary, including Walton High School, which consistently ranks among the top in the state with a 96.5% 4-year graduation rate and exceptional test scores. Other top-performing schools are Hillgrove High School, Timber Ridge Elementary School, and Mount Bethel Elementary School. At the middle school level, Dickerson Middle School stands out as one of the top-ranked in the state.

However, the data also reveals significant performance gaps, with some schools struggling to meet state averages in areas like graduation rates and test scores. There appears to be a correlation between a school's socioeconomic status, as measured by free/reduced lunch rates, and its academic outcomes. Addressing these achievement gaps will be a key priority for the Cobb County school district moving forward.
