Public Grades 6-12

Summary

The Hope Academy School is a public high school located in LaGrange, Georgia, serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 64 students. It is part of the Troup County School District, which is ranked 113 out of 206 districts in Georgia and has a 2-star rating from SchoolDigger. The Hope Academy School has consistently ranked very low among Georgia high schools, ranking 433 out of 452 in the 2024-2025 school year with a 0-star rating.

The Hope Academy School significantly underperforms compared to the Troup County and Georgia state averages across all Milestones Assessment subjects and grade levels. For example, in 2024-2025, only 7.4% of students were proficient or better in American Literature and Composition, compared to 33.6% in Troup County and 40.4% statewide. The school also has an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 92.21% to 95.31% in recent years, much higher than the surrounding Callaway High School, Troup County High School, and LaGrange High School.

The small enrollment of 64 students at The Hope Academy School, combined with the low student-teacher ratio, suggests that the school may have difficulty providing a comprehensive educational program and extracurricular opportunities for its students. This, along with the consistently low performance and high poverty rates, highlights the significant challenges The Hope Academy School faces in providing a quality education to its students. Addressing these issues will likely require a comprehensive, multi-faceted approach to improve the school's performance and outcomes.
