Summary:

The city of Cataula, Georgia is home to two schools: Creekside School, a middle school, and Mulberry Creek Elementary School. Both schools are part of the highly-ranked Harris County school district, which is in the top 15 districts in the state of Georgia.

Creekside School stands out as a top performer, ranking 15th out of 206 school districts in Georgia and earning a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's test scores consistently exceed the Harris County and Georgia state averages across multiple subjects and grade levels, particularly in mathematics. With a relatively low free/reduced lunch rate of 41.76%, Creekside School appears to serve a more affluent student population compared to the elementary school.

In contrast, Mulberry Creek Elementary School has a more average performance, with test scores generally in line with or slightly below the Harris County and state averages. The school's ranking has fluctuated between 228th and 397th out of over 1,200 Georgia elementary schools, indicating a middle-of-the-pack performance. However, both schools maintain relatively low student-teacher ratios, which is a positive factor for student learning and engagement.
