Summary

Pine Log Elementary is a public elementary school located in Rydal, Georgia, serving grades PK-5 with a total enrollment of 416 students. This school stands out as a high-performing institution within the Bartow County school district, consistently outperforming the district and state averages in academic assessments.

Pine Log Elementary has seen a steady improvement in its statewide ranking, moving from 649 out of 1,233 Georgia elementary schools in 2015-2016 to 238 out of 1,238 in the 2024-2025 school year, with a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger. The school's academic performance is particularly impressive, with proficiency rates significantly higher than the Bartow County and Georgia state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, Pine Log Elementary's 5th grade ELA proficiency rate was 52.2%, compared to 43.3% and 43% for the district and state, respectively.

While Pine Log Elementary serves a relatively high percentage of economically disadvantaged students, with free and reduced-price lunch rates ranging from 52.35% to 63.94%, the school's commitment to investing in its resources and programs is evident. The school's per-student spending has steadily increased, and it maintains a lower student-teacher ratio than many nearby schools, such as Cartersville Primary School and R.M. Moore Elementary School, which tend to have higher proficiency rates in Mathematics. Overall, Pine Log Elementary's strong academic performance, coupled with its focus on supporting economically disadvantaged students, makes it a standout school in the region.
