High Schools in Marietta City

The Marietta City school district in Georgia is home to two high schools: Marietta High School and George W. Hartmann Center. Marietta High School is the larger and more prominent of the two, with an enrollment of 2,626 students, while George W. Hartmann Center has just 8 students.

Marietta High School has a mixed performance on the Georgia Milestones Assessments, with proficiency rates above the state average in Biology but below the district and state levels in American Literature and Composition, Algebra I, and United States History. The school has a four-year graduation rate of 85.7% and a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, ranking 181 out of 458 Georgia high schools. However, over 54% of its students receive free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a relatively high level of economic disadvantage.

In contrast, George W. Hartmann Center is a much smaller school, with only 8 students enrolled. While details about its performance and services are limited, the significant difference in enrollment suggests that it may serve a specialized or alternative educational purpose within the Marietta City district. The student-teacher ratio at George W. Hartmann Center is also lower than that of Marietta High School, which could indicate differences in the educational approaches or specialized services provided at each school.
