Summary:
The Dade County school district in Georgia consists of 4 schools, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 1 high school. The district serves a diverse student population with relatively high rates of economic disadvantage.
Among the standout schools in the district, Davis Elementary School consistently ranks as one of the top elementary schools in the state, with strong academic performance across multiple subject areas. Dade Middle School also performs well, particularly in Algebra I, where over 97% of students were proficient or better in the 2024-2025 school year. In contrast, Dade County High School lags behind the county and state averages in some subject areas, such as American Literature and Composition and United States History, suggesting an opportunity for improvement.
Across the district, the schools have relatively low student-teacher ratios, ranging from 12.5 at Davis Elementary to 14.5 at Dade Elementary. However, the high percentages of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, from 57.19% at Dade County High School to 74.62% at Davis Elementary, indicate a need for additional resources and support to address the needs of economically disadvantaged students.
