Middle Schools in Terrell County

There is only one middle school located in Terrell County, Georgia - Terrell Middle School. This school serves students in grades 6-8 and has consistently performed below the state average on standardized tests, ranking in the bottom half of Georgia middle schools in recent years.

Terrell Middle School has a 100% free and reduced-price lunch rate, indicating a high-poverty student population. Despite higher per-student spending compared to the state average, the school's academic performance remains significantly below the state average across all subject areas and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts ranged from 6.1% (6th grade) to 26.7% (7th grade), compared to the state averages of 41.6% (6th grade) and 39.8% (7th grade). The school's performance in Mathematics is also well below the state average.

The consistently low performance and disconnect between spending and outcomes at Terrell Middle School suggest that the school may need targeted interventions and support to improve student achievement. The high-poverty student population may also contribute to the school's challenges, and additional resources and strategies may be necessary to address the unique needs of these students.
