Summary:
The schools in Johnson County, Georgia consist of 1 elementary school, 1 middle school, and 1 high school, serving students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. The data reveals a mix of strengths and areas for improvement across the district.
Johnson County Middle School stands out as a high performer, consistently exceeding county and state averages on Milestones Assessments, including 100% proficiency in Algebra I. This may be attributed to its relatively low student-teacher ratio of 11.1. In contrast, Johnson County High School has a 4-year graduation rate of 82.8%, which is below the state average, indicating a need for further investigation and support.
Across all three schools, an extremely high percentage of students, ranging from 94.39% to 94.58%, receive free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting significant socioeconomic challenges in the district. While spending per student is relatively consistent, the data highlights the importance of targeted interventions and support programs to address the needs of economically disadvantaged students. With the middle school's strong academic performance, there may be opportunities to share best practices and strategies with the elementary and high schools to help improve their outcomes as well.
