Summary

Callaway Elementary School is a public elementary school in LaGrange, Georgia, serving 637 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Troup County School District, which is ranked 113 out of 206 districts in the state and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Callaway Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the Troup County and Georgia state averages on the Milestones Assessment. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 27.4% of 5th-grade students were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 39.8% in Troup County and 43% statewide. The school has a low statewide ranking and has been rated 1 or 2 stars out of 5 by SchoolDigger for several years, indicating below-average performance. Additionally, Callaway has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, reaching over 80% in the 2023-2024 school year.

When comparing Callaway Elementary to nearby schools in the Troup County district, it is clear that the school is underperforming academically. For instance, Hollis Hand Elementary and Hillcrest Elementary consistently outperform Callaway in the Milestones Assessments, with significantly higher percentages of students proficient or better in all subject areas. Despite the higher spending per student at Callaway Elementary, the school's student-teacher ratio is lower than some of the nearby schools, suggesting that the additional funding may not be translating into improved educational outcomes.
