Summary:
The 30601 zip code area of Georgia is home to 5 schools, including 4 elementary schools and 1 middle school. While the schools serve a high-poverty student population, with all having free/reduced lunch rates over 82%, there are significant disparities in academic performance across the schools.
Johnnie Lay Burks Elementary School stands out as the highest performing school in the area, consistently ranking in the top 25% of Georgia elementary schools and maintaining a 4-star rating. In contrast, Howard B. Stroud Elementary School appears to be the lowest performing, ranking in the bottom 10% of the state and with proficiency rates well below the Clarke County and state averages.
Spending per student varies across the schools, from $10,687 at Coile Middle School to $17,234 at Howard B. Stroud, but this does not seem to directly correlate with academic outcomes. The data suggests significant opportunities for improvement, particularly in addressing the performance gaps between the highest and lowest achieving schools in the area.
