Teasley Middle School

Summary:

Teasley Middle School is a public middle school located in Canton, Georgia, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 1,606 students. It is part of the Cherokee County School District, which is ranked 28th out of 203 districts in Georgia and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

One of Teasley Middle School's key strengths is its exceptional performance in Algebra I, with 100% of students proficient or better on the Milestones Assessment in 2023-2024, significantly higher than the Cherokee County (52.6%) and Georgia (44%) averages. However, the school faces challenges in other academic areas, particularly in English Language Arts and Mathematics, where its performance lags behind the district and state averages. For example, in 8th grade English Language Arts, only 37.3% of Teasley students were proficient or better, compared to 50% in the district and 44.7% statewide.

When compared to other middle schools in the Cherokee County district, Teasley Middle School generally performs below the top-performing schools, such as Woodstock Middle School, E.T. Booth Middle School, Mill Creek Middle School, and Creekland Middle School. These schools have higher proficiency rates in core subjects and higher overall state rankings. Expanding the comparison to schools outside the Cherokee County district, Teasley Middle School's performance also lags behind high-performing schools in the Cobb County and Forsyth County districts, such as Mabry Middle School and Hendricks Middle School.

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.
