Better than 7% of Georgia middle schools

Summary

Weaver Middle School in Macon, GA, serves approximately 894 students in grades 6-8 as part of the Bibb County School District, and it has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of Georgia middle schools over the past decade.

For parents, the most pressing concern is academic performance. In the most recent test scores, math proficiency ranged from just 8.1% in 8th grade to 18.7% in 7th grade, compared to state averages of 40-46%. Science (9.6%) and social studies (6.0%) proficiency in 8th grade are also far below state benchmarks. It's important to note that English Language Arts (ELA) scores were not included in this release—they will be available in December. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 36% is more than double the state average (17.7%) and has increased from the prior year. This is a significant challenge, especially when compared to nearby Appling Middle School (14.9%) or Monroe County Middle School- Banks Stephens Campus (11.3%), which show that much lower absenteeism is achievable in the region.

There are a few bright spots and important comparisons. Weaver's 8th grade science proficiency actually exceeded some nearby schools, including Howard Middle and Appling Middle. However, the gap with Miller Magnet Middle School, just 5 miles away, is stark—Miller's 8th grade math proficiency (51.7%) is more than six times higher than Weaver's (8.1%), despite serving a similar student population. Weaver's Algebra I proficiency (11.8%) is also dramatically lower than at Howard Middle (80%) or Miller Magnet (59-88%). Per-student spending at Weaver ($14,035) is comparable to higher-performing schools like Rutland Middle ($13,675), suggesting that how resources are used matters more than the amount. Reducing chronic absenteeism and learning from successful nearby schools could be powerful levers for improvement.
