Summary

Villa Rica High School is a public high school located in Villa Rica, Georgia, serving 1,795 students in grades 9-12. It is part of the Carroll County School District, which is ranked 58 out of 206 districts in the state and has a 4-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Villa Rica High School's performance has been mixed compared to nearby schools and state averages. While the school's four-year graduation rates have fluctuated between 84.4% and 97.2% in recent years, its performance on the Milestones Assessments has been uneven, with some subjects like Biology performing better than the state average, and others like Algebra I lagging behind. The school also has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 55.45% to 66.41%, which can impact educational outcomes. Interestingly, Central High School, another school in the Carroll County district, outperforms Villa Rica High School on several key metrics, including test scores and graduation rates.

The school's spending per student has remained relatively consistent, ranging from $7,522 to $7,679 over the past few years. This suggests that the school may have limited resources to address the needs of its diverse student population. Exploring ways to optimize resource allocation and target areas of greatest need could be beneficial for Villa Rica High School as it works to improve academic achievement and support student success.
