Elementary Schools in Douglas County


Summary:

The Douglas County school district in Georgia is home to 21 elementary schools serving grades PK-5 or PK-8. While the district as a whole is rated 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger, a few standout schools demonstrate that high-quality education is possible within the county.

South Douglas Elementary School, Holly Springs Elementary School, and Winston Elementary School consistently rank among the top elementary schools in the state, with 4-star ratings and exceptional performance on state assessments. These schools have significantly higher proficiency rates in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science compared to the Douglas County and Georgia averages.

However, the data also reveals significant performance gaps between the top-performing and lower-performing schools in the district. Schools with higher rates of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, such as Burnett Elementary and North Douglas Elementary, tend to have the lowest proficiency rates. The variation in per-student spending and student-teacher ratios across the schools suggests that factors beyond just funding and demographics, such as school leadership and culture, play a crucial role in student outcomes within the Douglas County school district.
