Summary

Russell Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Warner Robins, Georgia, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 592 students. The school is part of the Houston County School District, which is ranked 60 out of 206 districts in Georgia and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

While Russell Elementary School's test scores on the Milestones Assessment are generally lower than the Houston County and Georgia state averages across all grade levels and subject areas, the school's statewide ranking has fluctuated over the years, consistently placing it in the bottom half of Georgia elementary schools. Additionally, Russell Elementary has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 78.04% to 83.88% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the nearby schools.

When comparing Russell Elementary School to the nearby schools in the Houston County district, such as Hilltop Elementary, Lake Joy Elementary, and Quail Run Elementary, it becomes clear that Russell is underperforming academically. The school's high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch suggests that it serves a lower-income population, which may contribute to the lower academic performance. Addressing these socioeconomic factors and implementing targeted improvement strategies could help the school better support its students and achieve more positive outcomes.
