Best Public Schools in Zip Code 31901


Summary:

The 31901 zip code area of Columbus, Georgia is home to two elementary schools: Hannan Elementary and Downtown Elementary Magnet Academy. While both schools serve high-poverty student populations, with over 96% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, Downtown Elementary Magnet Academy stands out as the higher-performing school in the area.

Downtown Elementary Magnet Academy, a public magnet school, has consistently ranked higher than Hannan Elementary in the statewide SchoolDigger rankings, placing in the top half of Georgia elementary schools for the past three school years. The school also outperforms the district and state averages in several key Milestones Assessment subjects and grade levels, particularly in English Language Arts and Science. In contrast, while Hannan Elementary still performs relatively well within its Muscogee County district, it has lower proficiency rates compared to Downtown Elementary Magnet Academy.

Both schools face the challenge of serving a high-poverty student population, which may require additional support and resources to improve student outcomes. While Downtown Elementary Magnet Academy spends slightly more per student and has a higher student-teacher ratio, it is unclear if these factors directly contribute to its stronger academic performance. Nonetheless, identifying and addressing the specific challenges faced by these high-need schools could help drive improvements in student learning and achievement across the 31901 zip code area.
