Summary

Willie J. Williams Middle School is a public middle school located in Moultrie, Georgia, serving grades 6-7 with a total enrollment of 1,342 students. The school is part of the Colquitt County School District, which is ranked 101 out of 206 school districts in Georgia and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite being part of the Colquitt County School District, Willie J. Williams Middle School has consistently underperformed the state average in Milestones Assessment proficiency rates for both English Language Arts and Mathematics across grades 6 and 7 over the past several years. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's 6th grade ELA proficiency rate was 40.4%, compared to the state average of 41.3%. Similarly, the school's 7th grade Math proficiency rate was 38.4%, compared to the state average of 40.1%. This persistent academic underperformance suggests that the school may face significant challenges in providing effective instruction and support for its students.

Additionally, Willie J. Williams Middle School has a high percentage of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 85.24% in 2022-2023 to 87.41% in 2023-2024. This suggests that the school serves a predominantly low-income student population, which can be a significant factor in academic achievement. The school's per-student spending has remained relatively consistent, ranging from $9,094 in 2017-2018 to $9,310 in 2018-2019, and the student-teacher ratio has fluctuated, from 12.4 in 2022-2023 to 13.7 in 2021-2022, indicating potential variations in the availability of instructional resources. These findings suggest that the school and district may need to implement comprehensive strategies to address the unique needs of the student population and improve overall educational outcomes.
