Best Public Schools in Zip Code 31824


Summary:

The 31824 zip code area is home to two underperforming schools - Webster County Elementary/Middle School and Webster County High School, both of which serve students in the Webster County district. These schools have seen a decline in their statewide rankings over the past few years, with both institutions ranking in the bottom half of their respective school types in Georgia.

Academically, the schools struggle, with significantly lower proficiency rates compared to state averages in core subjects like English Language Arts, Mathematics, Science, and Social Studies. For example, the elementary/middle school's 3rd-grade ELA proficiency rate was just 21.7% in 2023-2024, well below the state average of 38.4%. The high school's performance on Algebra I, Biology, and US History End-of-Course exams was also well below state standards.

Socioeconomic factors appear to be a significant challenge for these schools, with over 92% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year. The per-student spending also varies, with the elementary/middle school spending $14,291 per student and the high school spending $9,159 per student (based on 2018-2019 data). Despite these challenges, the high school did report a 100% four-year graduation rate for 2021-2022, which is a positive metric that could be leveraged to improve other areas of the school's performance.
