Freeman Elementary School

Summary:

Freeman Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Warrenton, Georgia, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 344 students. The school is part of the Warren County School District, which is ranked 185 out of 203 districts in Georgia and is rated 0 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

Freeman Elementary School has consistently ranked in the bottom quarter of Georgia elementary schools, with a statewide ranking between 1013 and 1187 out of around 1,200-1,250 schools over the past 10 years. Its performance on the Milestones Assessment tests is significantly below the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2023-2024, only 13% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in Mathematics and Science, compared to the state averages of 41% and 41.7%, respectively. The school has an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 99.13% to 100% over the past few years, indicating a very high level of economic disadvantage among the student population.

When comparing Freeman Elementary School to the nearby schools, such as Dearing Elementary School and Glascock County Elementary School, it is clear that the academic performance is significantly lower. These nearby schools have significantly higher proficiency rates on the Milestones Assessments, with some grades exceeding the state averages. This suggests that the challenges faced by Freeman Elementary School are unique and may require targeted interventions and support to address the needs of its student population.

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.
