Best Public Schools in Zip Code 30721


Summary:

The 30721 zip code area in Georgia is home to 20 schools, including 11 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, and 5 high schools, spread across two school districts - Whitfield County and Dalton Public Schools. The data reveals a mix of high-performing and lower-performing schools, with some standout institutions like Pleasant Grove Elementary School, Valley Point Middle School, and Coahulla Creek High School leading the way in academic achievement and graduation rates.

The data also highlights significant performance gaps between the highest and lowest-performing schools, particularly in test scores and graduation rates. For example, the four-year graduation rate ranges from 60.8% at Phoenix High School to 93.7% at Southeast Whitfield County High School. Similarly, proficiency rates on the Georgia Milestones assessments vary widely, with some schools performing well above the district and state averages, while others struggle to meet the benchmarks.

The data suggests that factors beyond just district-level policies and resources may be influencing student outcomes, as even within the same school districts, there is a wide range of performance among the schools. Additionally, the two alternative/special-purpose schools in the data set, The Dalton Academy and Elbert Shaw Regional Youth Detention Center, have the lowest performance metrics across the board, highlighting the unique challenges faced by these types of schools.
