Greenville High School

Summary:

Greenville High School is a public high school in Greenville, Georgia, serving 252 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Meriwether County School District, which is ranked 187 out of 203 districts in Georgia and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Greenville High School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Georgia high schools, with a ranking between 307 and 397 over the past several years, and a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Greenville High School faces significant challenges, including low academic performance, high poverty rates, and low graduation rates. The school's proficiency rates on the Georgia Milestones Assessments are significantly lower than the state averages, ranging from 9.6% in Algebra I to 27.4% in Biology, compared to state averages of 44% and 44.7%, respectively. Additionally, Greenville High School has a very high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 88.02% to 96.43% over the past few years, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student population. The school's four-year graduation rates have fluctuated between 79.7% and 89.8% over the past five years, which are lower than the state average of around 83-84%.

When compared to nearby schools, such as Manchester High School (also in the Meriwether County district) and schools in the Troup County district, Greenville High School consistently underperforms on academic measures. The high poverty rates and low funding (as indicated by the relatively low per-student spending) at Greenville High School may be contributing factors to the school's poor academic performance and low graduation rates. Despite these challenges, Greenville High School's rankings and performance metrics have remained relatively stagnant over the past several years, with little to no improvement observed.

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.
