The school is part of the State Specialty Schools I- Dubois Integrity Academy district, which is ranked 164 out of 203 districts in Georgia and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite spending more per student than nearby schools, Dubois Integrity Academy has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of Georgia elementary schools over the past several years, with only 18.1% of 3rd graders proficient or better in English Language Arts and just 16.5% of 3rd graders, 8.9% of 4th graders, and 7.7% of 5th graders meeting or exceeding mathematics standards. The school also has an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, at 96.36%, significantly higher than the nearby schools, which range from 90.30% to 90.51%. Additionally, Dubois Integrity Academy has a higher student-teacher ratio of 16.3, compared to ratios ranging from 11.7 to 16.2 for the nearby schools.

The consistently low performance and significant socioeconomic disadvantages faced by Dubois Integrity Academy's students suggest that a multifaceted approach will be needed to address the school's challenges. While the higher spending per student has not translated to better academic outcomes, the nearby schools, which serve predominantly low-income populations, generally outperform Dubois Integrity Academy on key metrics, indicating that there may be opportunities to learn from their practices and strategies.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
