Summary:

Glynn County is home to 10 elementary schools serving grades PK-5, with a combined enrollment of nearly 6,000 students across the Brunswick and St. Simons Island areas. The district overall ranks in the 75th percentile of Georgia districts, but performance varies dramatically from school to school.

At the top, Oglethorpe Point Elementary School is the standout performer, ranking 81st in the state (93rd percentile) with exceptional math proficiency averaging 76.8% across grades 3-5—about 30 points above state averages. St. Simons Elementary School is close behind, ranking 120th statewide and showing steady improvement over three years, including the highest single subject-grade score in the district: 87.2% in 3rd grade math. Greer Elementary School rounds out the top tier at 227th statewide. Satilla Marsh Elementary School deserves special mention—it achieves top-quartile results (79th percentile) with the lowest per-student spending in the district ($13,774) and the lowest chronic absenteeism rate (8.4%).

At the other end, Burroughs-Molette Elementary School faces the greatest challenges, ranking 1,104th out of 1,219 schools statewide with math proficiency averaging just 19.7%. Goodyear Elementary School and Altama Elementary School also struggle, ranking in the bottom third of Georgia schools. Chronic absenteeism is a powerful indicator of performance—the three lowest-absenteeism schools are all top performers, while Glyndale Elementary School has a concerning 27% chronic absenteeism rate. Notably, higher spending does not guarantee better outcomes: Burroughs-Molette spends $17,770 per student yet has the lowest scores, while Satilla Marsh spends the least and excels. English Language Arts scores for the current year will be released in December.
