Colquitt County


Summary:

The Colquitt County school district in Georgia consists of 12 schools, including 10 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district exhibits a mix of high-performing and struggling schools, with stark disparities in academic achievement across the schools.

Several schools stand out as top performers, including Sunset Elementary School, Wright Elementary School, and Hamilton Elementary School. These schools consistently rank among the best in the state, with strong test scores and high proficiency rates, particularly in math and science. In contrast, other schools like Cox Elementary and Stringfellow Elementary struggle, with proficiency rates well below state averages.

The data suggests a correlation between poverty levels and academic performance, as the schools with the highest percentages of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch tend to be the lowest-performing. Additionally, smaller schools in the district, such as Hamilton and Doerun Elementary, appear to outperform some of the larger elementary schools, indicating that smaller learning environments may be beneficial for students in this area.
