Summary

Robert H Harvey Elementary School is a public elementary school in Albany, Georgia, serving 464 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Dougherty County School District, which is ranked 163 out of 206 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Academically, Robert H Harvey Elementary consistently performs below the Dougherty County and Georgia state averages on the Milestones Assessment. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 19.4% of 3rd graders, 11.3% of 4th graders, and 19.2% of 5th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the Dougherty County averages of 21.1%, 23.5%, and 27.8%, respectively. The school has been ranked among the lowest-performing elementary schools in Georgia, consistently in the bottom 10-15% over the past 10 years, and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Interestingly, when compared to nearby schools in the Dougherty County district, such as Sherwood Acres Elementary School, Robert H Harvey Elementary consistently underperforms in all subject areas and grade levels. Additionally, the school has a 100% free and reduced lunch rate, indicating that all students come from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, and a relatively high student-teacher ratio compared to nearby schools. Despite the school's high per-student spending, the lack of academic progress suggests that resources may not be effectively utilized or targeted to address the specific needs of the students.
