Summary:
The schools in Washington County, Georgia consist of 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The data reveals a district-wide struggle with academic performance, as all schools are performing significantly below state averages on standardized tests.
T.J. Elder Middle School stands out as a potential bright spot, with the highest proficiency rates in Algebra I compared to the county and state. However, the school's overall performance on other subject tests is below state averages. In contrast, Ridge Road Primary School has an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at nearly 96%, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage in the district.
The data also shows that Washington County High School had a positive 93.2% four-year graduation rate in 2021-2022, but the test scores for all schools in the district are significantly below the state averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics. This suggests a systemic issue within the district that needs to be addressed, potentially through targeted interventions and support to address the economic challenges faced by the community.
