Douglas County

Summary:

The Douglas County school district in Georgia encompasses 35 schools, including 21 elementary schools, 8 middle schools, 5 high schools, and 1 alternative school, serving students from diverse backgrounds and economic circumstances.

Among the standout schools in the district are Holly Springs Elementary School, which ranks in the top 20% of Georgia elementary schools and boasts exceptional English Language Arts proficiency, and South Douglas Elementary School, a high-performing school in the top 15% statewide. Other notable schools include Winston Elementary School, Fairplay Middle School, and Chapel Hill High School, all of which rank among the top 25% of schools in Georgia.

However, the data also reveals significant disparities in academic performance across the Douglas County district, with a wide range in Milestones assessment proficiency rates and graduation rates. This suggests unequal access to quality education, with schools serving higher-poverty populations generally underperforming. Addressing these disparities and building on the success of the district's brightest spots will be crucial for ensuring all students in Douglas County receive a high-quality education.
