Middle Schools in Griffin-Spalding County

Summary:

The Griffin-Spalding County school district in Georgia is home to 4 middle schools serving grades 6-8. These schools include Rehoboth Road Middle School, Cowan Road Middle School, Carver Road Middle School, and Kennedy Road Middle School. The data reveals significant performance differences between these schools, with Rehoboth Road Middle School standing out as the top-performing school in the district.

Rehoboth Road Middle School consistently outperforms the district and state averages on standardized tests across subject areas and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, 93.5% of Rehoboth Road students were proficient or better in Algebra I, compared to just 26.5% for the district and 44.9% for the state. This high academic achievement is particularly impressive given that Rehoboth Road serves a student population with 80.84% qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch.

These schools serve even higher-need populations, with free/reduced lunch rates ranging from 85% to 100%. Understanding the factors contributing to Rehoboth Road's success and the other schools' challenges could provide valuable insights for improving educational outcomes across the Griffin-Spalding County middle school system.
