Summary

Adairsville Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 908 students in grades PK-5 in Adairsville, Georgia, which is part of the Bartow County School District. This school consistently outperforms the district and state averages in standardized test scores, particularly in mathematics, with 52.2% of 4th graders proficient or better in math compared to 48.7% for Bartow County and 49% for the state.

Adairsville Elementary has a relatively low student-teacher ratio ranging from 14.5 to 15.9, which is lower than the nearby Kingston Elementary (13.2) and Hamilton Crossing Elementary (13.0). Additionally, the school has relatively low spending per student, ranging from $1,870 to $8,642, compared to the nearby schools which spend around $10,000-$11,000 per student. However, Adairsville Elementary serves a population with significant socioeconomic challenges, with 48.68% to 60.35% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, which is higher than the nearby schools.

Despite these socioeconomic challenges, Adairsville Elementary has maintained a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger for several years, suggesting the school is providing a consistent level of education and effectively serving its student population. The school's ability to outperform the district and state in academic achievement, particularly in mathematics, while operating with relatively fewer resources, is a notable strength.
