Summary:
The city of Mount Airy, Georgia is home to 3 schools, including 1 elementary school and 2 high schools, one of which is an alternative school. The schools in this area show a range of performance, with Habersham Central High School standing out as the top-performing school in the district, consistently ranking among the best high schools in Georgia. In contrast, Habersham Success Academy, the alternative high school, faces unique challenges in serving its at-risk student population, but still manages to achieve a 100% graduation rate despite lower assessment scores.
Hazel Grove Elementary School also performs well, with high rankings and strong assessment results, particularly in English Language Arts and Science. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio may contribute to its success. However, the significant differences in free/reduced lunch rates and per-student spending across the schools suggest that the Habersham County district may need to consider more equitable resource allocation to ensure all students have access to the support and resources they need to succeed.
The racial demographics of the schools, with Habersham Central High School and Habersham Success Academy having higher percentages of Hispanic and African American students, highlight the importance of addressing potential achievement gaps and ensuring all students receive a high-quality education. Overall, the data provides a comprehensive view of the schools in Mount Airy, Georgia, and identifies both strengths and areas for improvement within the district.
