Summary:
The Madison County school district in Georgia has only one high school, Madison County High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. While the district is ranked 51 out of 203 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating, the high school's statewide ranking has declined over the past three years, dropping from 141 out of 429 Georgia high schools in 2021-2022 to 189 out of 458 in 2023-2024.
Madison County High School has a mixed academic performance, outperforming the state average in some subjects like American Literature and Biology, but underperforming in others like Algebra I and US History. The school's four-year graduation rate of 94.6% is above the state average, but nearly half (48.61%) of its students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high-poverty student population. The school district's spending of $9,619 per student in 2018-2019 is on the lower end compared to state averages, which may be a contributing factor to the school's academic outcomes.
Overall, Madison County High School appears to be a relatively average-performing high school in Georgia, with some areas of strength and others that could use improvement. The school's high poverty rates and relatively low per-student spending may be factors impacting its academic performance and declining statewide ranking.
