Summary

White Elementary School is a public elementary school serving 591 students in grades PK-5 in the Bartow County School District in White, Georgia. The school has been consistently ranked in the middle range of Georgia elementary schools, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger for most years.

White Elementary School's test scores in English Language Arts (ELA) and Mathematics are generally on par with or slightly above the Bartow County and Georgia state averages, with stronger performance in the 5th grade compared to the lower grades. The school has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from around 55% to 71% in recent years, which is higher than the nearby schools in the Bartow County district. However, White Elementary School's spending per student has been increasing, from $8,285 in 2016-2017 to $9,894 in 2018-2019, and the school has a relatively low student-teacher ratio, ranging from 14.4 to 14.8 in recent years.

Despite its middle-range ranking, White Elementary School has maintained a consistent 3-star rating, suggesting stable performance. The school's stronger test scores in the upper grades may indicate more effective curriculum and instruction in the later elementary years. While the school's socioeconomic factors present challenges, the increased spending and low student-teacher ratio suggest a focus on improving educational resources and support for the students.
