Meadowbrook Elementary has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Georgia elementary schools over the past decade, with a statewide rank between 1110-1221 out of around 1,200-1,250 schools. The school significantly underperforms compared to the Richmond County and Georgia state averages on the Milestones Assessments, with only 7.2% of 3rd graders, 11.8% of 4th graders, and 20.5% of 5th graders proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 20.6%, 16.9%, and 26.9% for Richmond County, and 38.4%, 37%, and 48.2% for the state. Meadowbrook's math and science proficiency rates are also much lower than the district and state. Additionally, the school has an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 97.98% to 97.99% over the past few years, indicating a high concentration of economically disadvantaged students.
While the nearby schools in the Richmond County district also perform poorly compared to state averages, Meadowbrook Elementary consistently ranks among the lowest-performing schools in the district. The school's relatively low per-student spending, ranging from $9,563 to $10,034, and high student-teacher ratio of 13.4-14.6 may indicate that it is not receiving adequate resources to support student learning and address the needs of its economically disadvantaged population. These factors suggest that significant interventions and support are needed to improve student outcomes and provide equitable educational opportunities for the Meadowbrook Elementary community.
