Summary

Tutt Middle School is a public middle school in Augusta, Georgia, serving 465 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Richmond County School District, which is ranked 177 out of 206 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Tutt Middle School has consistently ranked in the bottom half of Georgia middle schools over the past several years, with a ranking between 457 and 572 out of around 550-590 middle schools.

Tutt Middle School consistently underperforms the Richmond County and Georgia state averages across all subject areas and grade levels on the Milestones Assessments. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 39.1% of Tutt students were proficient or better in Algebra I, compared to 14.5% in Richmond County and 44.9% statewide. The school also has an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 85.59% to 97.9% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the surrounding schools in the district. Despite these challenges, Tutt Middle School has a relatively high per-student spending level, ranging from $9,775 to $10,135 in recent years, and a low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 10 to 15.5 students per teacher.

The consistently low performance and high poverty rates at Tutt Middle School suggest that the school is struggling to provide a quality education to its students. While the school has relatively high per-student spending and smaller class sizes, these factors do not appear to be translating into improved academic outcomes. The school's challenges may require a comprehensive, data-driven approach to address the underlying issues and support student success.
