Summary:

Greenville Middle School is a public middle school in Greenville, Georgia, serving grades 6-8 with a student population of 170. The school is part of the Meriwether County School District, which is ranked 187 out of 203 districts in the state and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger. Greenville Middle School has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Georgia middle schools over the past several years, with a ranking between 440-515 out of 542-588 schools.

Greenville Middle School consistently underperforms compared to the Meriwether County and Georgia state averages across all subject areas and grade levels. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts ranged from 14.5% to 28.4% at Greenville, compared to 18-21.3% for Meriwether County and 39.8-44.7% for the state. The school also has an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 88.24% to 96.47% over the past few years, significantly higher than the surrounding schools. Despite the relatively high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio, Greenville Middle School is not achieving the academic results that one might expect.

In comparison, nearby schools like East Coweta Middle School and Manchester Middle School demonstrate that it is possible for schools in the same region to achieve significantly better academic outcomes. This highlights the potential for Greenville Middle School to improve if it can identify and implement effective practices from its higher-performing peers.

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.
