Summary:

South Tattnall Elementary School is a public elementary school in Glennville, Georgia, serving 838 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Tattnall County School District. The school's academic performance is generally below the state average, with proficiency rates in 3rd grade English Language Arts (22.3%) and 5th grade subjects lagging behind state benchmarks. However, the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio of 12:1, which could be a potential asset.

Compared to its closest neighbor, North Tattnall Elementary School, South Tattnall's performance is on par or slightly better. But when compared to schools in other nearby districts, such as Waldo Pafford Elementary in Liberty County and Odum Elementary in Wayne County, South Tattnall's academic achievement lags significantly behind.

The high percentage of students (78.4%) receiving free or reduced-price lunch at South Tattnall Elementary suggests that socioeconomic challenges may be a contributing factor to the school's lower performance compared to its more affluent neighbors. While the school's low student-teacher ratio is a potential strength, it does not appear to be a significant differentiating factor in its academic outcomes. Overall, South Tattnall Elementary School faces significant challenges in improving its academic performance and may benefit from targeted interventions and support to address the underlying socioeconomic disparities.

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.
