Summary:
The Marietta City school district in Georgia is home to two middle schools: Marietta Middle School and Marietta Sixth Grade Academy. Based on the available data, Marietta Middle School stands out as the higher-performing of the two, ranking in the top 37% of Georgia middle schools and demonstrating exceptional proficiency rates in Algebra I.
Marietta Middle School has made significant improvements in its statewide ranking, jumping from 304 out of 577 schools in 2022-2023 to 219 out of 588 schools in 2023-2024. The school's Algebra I proficiency rate of 97.3% is notably higher than both the Marietta City and Georgia state averages. Additionally, the school's English Language Arts and Mathematics proficiency rates for 7th and 8th grade students are above the district and state averages.
In contrast, Marietta Sixth Grade Academy's performance, while still above the state average, is on par with the Marietta City district average. Both schools serve a significant population of economically disadvantaged students, with over 60% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. This raises questions about the availability of resources and support to ensure equitable educational opportunities for all students in the Marietta City district.
