Summary:
There is only one elementary school located in Stewart County, Georgia - Stewart County Elementary School. The school serves students from pre-kindergarten through 5th grade and has consistently ranked in the bottom quartile of Georgia elementary schools, with low proficiency rates on standardized tests across all grade levels and subject areas.
Despite higher per-student spending and a relatively low student-teacher ratio, Stewart County Elementary School has struggled to improve its academic performance. In the 2024-2025 school year, only 5.3% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in Math and ELA, compared to the state averages of 42.6% and 43%, respectively. Additionally, the school serves a predominantly low-income population, with 100% of students eligible for free or reduced-price lunch in the 2023-2024 school year.
While the higher funding and resources provided to Stewart County Elementary School suggest a commitment to improving educational outcomes, the school's consistently low performance indicates that additional interventions and support may be necessary to address the underlying challenges facing the school and its students.
