Summary

Callaway High School in Hogansville, GA, serves approximately 930 students in grades 9–12 as part of the Troup County school district. The school has earned a 2-star rating and currently ranks in the 31st percentile statewide, a drop from the 42nd percentile the previous year.

The most encouraging news for parents is that Callaway excels at keeping students on track to graduate. The graduation rate stands at 93.8%, well above the state average of 87.2%, and has improved by nearly 10 percentage points over five years. Chronic absenteeism has also been cut in half, falling from 26.8% to 12.2%—now better than the district, state, and every nearby high school, including Troup County High School (16.0%) and LaGrange High School (13.6%). The dropout rate is just 1.5%, also below the state average. These numbers suggest a school where students feel connected and supported enough to stay and finish.

Academically, results are mixed. Algebra I proficiency (44.6%) is close to the state average, but Biology (31.9%) and U.S. History (14.8%) lag significantly behind. The U.S. History score represents a sharp decline from two years ago and is 24 points below the state. By comparison, Heard County High School, just 15 miles away, outperforms Callaway in every subject despite serving a similarly high-poverty population. One bright spot: Hispanic students at Callaway rank in the 55th percentile statewide, the school's strongest subgroup performance. With 100% of students now qualifying for free or reduced lunch and per-student spending rising to $14,737, the school has resources and strong retention—the next step is translating those into more consistent classroom gains.
