Best Public Schools in Zip Code 30434


Summary:

The 30434 zip code area is home to two schools - Jefferson County High School, the only high school serving grades 9-12, and Louisville Academy School, the sole elementary school serving grades PK-5. Both schools are part of the Jefferson County school district, which is ranked 180 out of 203 districts in Georgia and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The data analysis reveals that the schools in this area are consistently performing below state averages on standardized tests, with particularly low proficiency rates in core subjects like English Language Arts and Mathematics. For example, in 2023-2024, only 18.5% of Jefferson County High School students were proficient or better in American Literature and Composition, compared to the state average of 42%. Both schools also have a 100% free/reduced lunch rate, indicating a high level of economic disadvantage among the student populations.

Despite the low student-teacher ratios at both schools, the academic challenges persist, suggesting that factors beyond just staffing levels, such as resource allocation, curriculum, and instructional practices, may be contributing to the underperformance. The overall low performance and ranking of the Jefferson County school district highlights the need for systemic improvements and targeted interventions to support the schools and students in this area.
