Summary

Midland Academy is an elementary school in Midland, Georgia, serving 605 students in grades PK-5. It is part of the Muscogee County School District, which is ranked 155 out of 206 districts in the state.

Midland Academy has some strengths, including generally higher test scores than the district and state averages, particularly in English Language Arts and Science. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 47.9% of 5th-grade students at Midland Academy were proficient or better in ELA, compared to 31.9% in Muscogee County and 43% statewide. The school has also seen a significant decrease in its free and reduced lunch rate, from 96.53% in 2022-2023 to 47.11% in 2023-2024, suggesting a potential shift in the socioeconomic demographics of the student population.

However, Midland Academy's performance is mixed when compared to nearby schools. While it outperforms some schools, such as Wesley Heights Elementary and Forrest Road Elementary, in test scores, it lags behind higher-performing schools like Britt David Elementary Computer Magnet Academy, North Columbus Elementary, and Mathews Elementary. Maintaining consistent academic performance and improving the school's overall rating should be a priority for the district and school leadership.

Terrible administration problems. The principal has no idea what’s going on with the kids. Out of control bullying problem. The teachers are great, but it doesn’t matter because your child can’t get an education due to constant class disturbances, bullying, kids cussing out their teachers, and kids getting caught with pot in the bathroom. My child was bullied all year and the upper administration did absolutely nothing about it. Close Quote
