Middle Schools in Whitfield County

The Whitfield County middle school system consists of 5 schools serving grades 6-8, located in the northwestern region of Georgia. Based on the data analysis, two schools stand out as top performers in the district: New Hope Middle School and Westside Middle School. These schools consistently rank among the highest in the state, earning 4-star ratings from SchoolDigger, and significantly outperforming the Whitfield County and Georgia averages on standardized tests.

In contrast, Eastbrook Middle School struggles with lower test scores and a higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, indicating a higher concentration of economically disadvantaged students. The data suggests a potential correlation between a school's performance and the socioeconomic status of its student population, though further analysis would be needed to confirm this relationship.

The middle schools in Whitfield County spend between $8,857 and $10,358 per student, with Valley Point Middle School having the highest per-student spending. However, the data does not show a direct correlation between resource allocation and student outcomes, suggesting that other factors, such as teaching quality, curriculum, and school leadership, may play a significant role in academic performance.
