Evans County


Summary:

The Evans County school district in Georgia consists of 4 schools: 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools (one of which is an alternative school). Overall, the schools in Evans County perform significantly below the state averages on standardized test scores, with the exception of the alternative high school, which has extremely low proficiency rates as is common for such schools.

The Claxton Elementary School and Claxton Middle School rank in the bottom quartile of schools in Georgia, with only 11-20% of students proficient in English Language Arts and Math, compared to state averages of 37-48%. Claxton High School performs slightly better, ranking in the bottom half of high schools statewide, but still with relatively low proficiency rates.

The high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 96.8% to 97.8%, indicate significant economic disadvantages in the student population, which is likely a major factor contributing to the low academic performance across the district. Additionally, the high student-teacher ratios suggest that resources may not be effectively allocated to support student learning. Addressing these systemic challenges will be crucial for improving outcomes in Evans County.
