Spring Hill Elementary School

Q: Is Spring Hill Elementary School a good school?

Spring Hill Elementary School ranks 352 nd of 1248 Georgia elementary schools. SchoolDigger rates this school 4 stars out of 5.

Summary:

Spring Hill Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Fayetteville, Georgia, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 655 students. The school is part of the Fayette County School District, which is ranked 9th out of 203 districts in Georgia and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Spring Hill Elementary consistently performs above the state average on the Milestones Assessment, the school's test scores lag behind the Fayette County district average in most subject areas and grade levels. This performance gap is particularly notable when compared to top-performing schools in the district, such as Braelinn Elementary and Oak Grove Elementary. The high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch at Spring Hill Elementary, ranging from 55.52% to 63.05%, may be a contributing factor to the school's lower academic performance. Additionally, the school's per-student spending and student-teacher ratio are lower than those of the higher-performing schools in the district.

The data suggests that Spring Hill Elementary faces challenges in terms of student performance, socioeconomic factors, and resource allocation compared to its peers. Addressing these areas could be key to improving the school's overall academic outcomes and providing a more equitable education for its students. While the school has maintained a relatively stable level of performance over the years, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of the past decade, more significant changes may be needed to achieve higher levels of success.

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.
