Elementary Schools in Jefferson County

Summary:

The three elementary schools located in Jefferson County, Georgia serve students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade. These schools, Wrens Elementary School, Louisville Academy School, and Carver Elementary School, face significant challenges in providing quality education to their students, as evidenced by their low academic performance compared to state and district averages.

Among the three schools, Wrens Elementary School has the highest proficiency rates in several subject areas, including 5th grade English Language Arts (37%) and 5th grade Mathematics (41.3%) in the 2024-2025 school year. Louisville Academy School has the best 3rd grade English Language Arts (31%) and 3rd grade Mathematics (34%) proficiency rates in 2023-2024, while Carver Elementary School has the highest 4th grade Mathematics proficiency rate (41.7%) in 2023-2024.

However, the overall academic performance of all three schools is significantly below the Jefferson County and Georgia state averages, with the schools consistently ranking in the bottom half of elementary schools in the state. This suggests that the schools are facing significant challenges, such as high rates of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch and limited resources, which may be contributing to the low student outcomes.
