Best Public Schools in Zip Code 30450


Summary:

The 30450 zip code area is home to two schools - Portal Middle/High School and Portal Elementary School, both part of the Bulloch County school district. While Portal Middle/High School maintains a relatively high 90.3% graduation rate, its statewide ranking has declined over the past three years. In contrast, Portal Elementary School's statewide ranking has remained relatively stable, though its test scores are mixed, with some grades performing above and others below the district and state averages.

Both schools serve a high-need student population, with Portal Elementary having a notably high 72.07% free/reduced lunch rate. This suggests the schools may require additional resources and support to address the needs of their students. Interestingly, the per-student spending at the two schools is similar, at $11,252 for Portal Middle/High and $10,863 for Portal Elementary, which may not be sufficient to meet the needs of their high-poverty student populations.

Overall, the data highlights the need for further investigation into the factors contributing to the academic performance and resource allocation at these schools, particularly in addressing the disparities between the middle/high school and elementary school. While Portal Middle/High School maintains a strong graduation rate, its declining statewide ranking and underperformance on test scores compared to the district and state suggest areas for improvement. Similarly, the mixed performance of Portal Elementary School, despite its stable ranking, indicates the need to better understand the unique challenges and opportunities facing these schools in the 30450 zip code area.
