Summary:
The Brooks County school district in Georgia consists of 6 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. The district faces significant challenges, with low academic proficiency rates and high poverty levels across most schools.
Among the standout schools, North Brooks Elementary School stands out with the highest performance on state assessments, including 39.7% of 4th graders proficient or better in Math compared to the district average of 33.6%. In contrast, Delta Innovative School, one of the high schools, has the lowest performance with only 1.6% of students proficient or better in Algebra I, well below the district average of 13.4%.
Across the district, proficiency rates on state assessments are generally low compared to state averages, and all schools have very high rates of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 77.82% at Brooks County High School to 100% at Quitman Elementary and Brooks County Middle School. These challenges suggest the need for targeted interventions and additional resources to support the high-poverty schools in the district.
