Summary

SAIL Charter Academy - School for Arts-Infused Learning is a K-8 charter school in Evans, GA, serving 554 students as an independent state specialty school within the State Specialty Schools II- SAIL Charter Academy - School fo district, and it currently holds a 3-star rating.

SAIL’s biggest academic strength shows up in middle school. In 6th grade math, 62.8% of students scored proficient—more than 22 points above the state average—and the school’s Algebra I results are exceptional: 81.3% of students passed, compared to 48.1% statewide. That’s a 33-point advantage, suggesting the school does a great job accelerating students into advanced math. Science is also a consistent bright spot, especially in 8th grade, where 44.4% of students are proficient versus 29.7% statewide. However, 8th grade social studies is a clear challenge, with only 19.5% proficient versus 40.2% statewide—a gap that has persisted for several years. In elementary grades, math scores are mixed: 3rd grade (39.7%) trails the state, but 5th grade (52.3%) beats it. Compared to nearby Columbia County elementary schools like Parkway Elementary School or Lewiston Elementary School—which rank in the top 10% statewide—SAIL’s elementary scores are lower, but its middle school performance is competitive with or better than those schools’ earlier grades.

One of the most encouraging trends is attendance. Chronic absenteeism has dropped from 15.3% in 2023-2024 to just 8.1% now—less than half the state average of 17.7%. The school also maintains a favorable 13:1 student-teacher ratio and spends about $12,496 per student, which is actually less than several nearby schools. While SAIL’s overall ranking (68th percentile) sits below its high-performing neighbors, the school’s recent improvement—moving from 434th to 395th in state rankings—combined with strong middle school math and science, suggests positive momentum. For parents considering SAIL, the arts-infused model appears to support STEM success, though the persistent social studies gap and elementary math scores are worth asking about on a tour.

The school has continuously gone down hill. Some teachers are great while others play videos to teach the class. The school doesn’t communicate with parents. We are told to email if we have a question. No matter the question asked Dunn always responds in a rude condescending tone. The school website is never updated and Facebook is required to know what is going within the school. No matter how many parents voice the communication concern and the growing class sizes they are ignored or rudely responded to. A very promising school that will not last with the current administration. Close Quote

Awful. Unorganized and communication is non-existent. Teachers are not required to be certified. Rude staff. Close Quote
