Terrell County


Summary:

The Terrell County school district in Georgia consists of 3 schools: 1 elementary, 1 middle, and 1 high school. Overall, the schools in Terrell County are performing significantly below the state average on various academic measures, including standardized test scores and graduation rates.

None of the schools in Terrell County appear to be standout performers. The Cooper-Carver Elementary School, Terrell Middle School, and Terrell High School all consistently score well below the state average on the Georgia Milestones Assessments, with proficiency rates ranging from 13.8% to 44.4% in English Language Arts and 21.3% to 35.2% in mathematics, compared to state averages of 37% to 48.2% and 41% to 48.1%, respectively. The high school's performance on end-of-course assessments was also well below the state average.

Additionally, the 4-year graduation rate at Terrell High School was 87.6% in the 2021-2022 school year, slightly below the state average. All three schools have a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, with 100% of students at each school receiving this benefit. While the schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios and high spending per student, these factors have not translated into strong academic outcomes, suggesting that a more comprehensive approach may be needed to address the underlying challenges facing the district.
