Summary:
The city of Hampton, Georgia is home to 15 schools, including 8 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 4 high schools, serving a diverse student population across the Clayton County and Henry County school districts.
The data reveals stark differences in academic performance between the two districts. The Clayton County schools generally have lower test scores, graduation rates, and SchoolDigger ratings compared to the Henry County schools. For example, Dutchtown High has the highest statewide ranking among the high schools, ranking 210 out of 451 Georgia high schools and receiving a 3-star rating, while Hampton High has a lower 86.7% graduation rate.
The data suggests a potential correlation between socioeconomic factors and student achievement, as the schools with the highest free and reduced lunch rates, which are indicators of lower socioeconomic status, tend to have the lowest academic performance. However, there are exceptions, such as Rocky Creek Elementary, which has impressive test scores despite being in the Clayton County district, highlighting the complexity of the educational landscape in the city of Hampton.
