Summary:
The Crisp County school district in Georgia is home to three elementary schools: Crisp County Primary School, Crisp County Elementary School, and Crisp County Pre-K. While the schools share a common location, the data reveals a concerning trend of underperformance across the district's elementary schools.
Academically, the proficiency rates on the Georgia Milestones assessments at both Crisp County Primary School and Crisp County Elementary School fall significantly below the state averages, with 3rd grade ELA proficiency at just 27% and 4th grade ELA proficiency at only 14.1%, compared to state averages of 34.9% and 39.3%, respectively. Additionally, Crisp County Elementary School has been ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Georgia elementary schools for the past three years, receiving a 1-star rating from School Digger.
The high free/reduced lunch rates of 100% across all three Crisp County elementary schools suggest that the student populations face substantial socioeconomic challenges, which likely contribute to the poor academic performance. Despite the district's higher-than-average spending per student, the schools continue to struggle, indicating a need for comprehensive improvement efforts to address the systemic issues and provide quality education to the students of Crisp County.
