Griffin-Spalding County

Summary:

The Griffin-Spalding County school district in Georgia consists of 18 schools, including 11 elementary schools, 4 middle schools, and 3 high schools. The district as a whole is ranked 174 out of 206 in Georgia and is rated 1 star out of 5 by SchoolDigger.

A few schools stand out in the district. Crescent Road Elementary School consistently performs above the district and state averages on standardized test scores, with 50% or more of students proficient in English Language Arts and Mathematics. Rehoboth Road Middle School has the highest proficiency rates on the Milestones Assessments among the middle schools, particularly in Algebra I and 8th grade Mathematics. Compared to Griffin High School, Spalding High School has higher proficiency rates on the Milestones Assessments, especially in Biology and United States History.

However, the data also reveals significant disparities in academic performance across the district. Schools with the highest rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, such as Cowan Road Elementary, Kennedy Road Middle, and Atkinson Elementary, tend to have the lowest academic performance. Addressing the needs of these lower-performing schools will be crucial for improving outcomes for students in the Griffin-Spalding County school district.
