Summary

Langston Chapel Middle School in Statesboro, GA, serves approximately 718 students in grades 6-8 as part of the Bulloch County School District. The school has shown a positive trajectory, improving its statewide ranking from the 21st percentile in 2022-2023 to the 32nd percentile in 2025-2026, and earning a 2-star rating. All students qualify for free or reduced lunch, and the school maintains a favorable student-to-teacher ratio of 13.4:1 with per-student spending of $14,862.

The most striking success at Langston Chapel is its advanced math pathway. In 2025-2026, 100% of students taking the Algebra I Milestones Assessment scored proficient or better—more than double the district and state averages. This is not a one-year fluke; the school has consistently outperformed in Algebra I for four straight years, matching the achievement of Southeast Bulloch Middle School, the district's highest-ranked middle school. However, grade-level math tells a different story: only 24% of 6th graders and 23.7% of 7th graders are proficient, well below state averages. This suggests the school excels at accelerating its top students but struggles to bring the majority to proficiency in standard courses. Science and social studies remain areas of concern, with 8th grade science proficiency at just 15.5% and social studies at 27.3%.

Chronic absenteeism has improved dramatically, dropping from 39.8% in 2021-2022 to 21.7% in 2025-2026, though it remains above the state average. The contrast with Southeast Bulloch Middle School—just 7.8 miles away—is stark: Southeast Bulloch ranks 87th statewide (85th percentile) compared to Langston Chapel's 394th (32nd percentile), with significant gaps in grade-level math, science, and social studies. Yet both schools achieve 100% proficiency in Algebra I, showing that Langston Chapel's advanced math program is on par with the district's best. With ELA scores not yet released for the current year, the full picture remains incomplete, but the available data suggests a school making incremental progress while facing significant challenges.
