Summary

Battlefield Elementary School in Fort Oglethorpe, GA, serves 426 students in grades 3 through 5 and is part of the highly-rated Catoosa County school district.

Battlefield Elementary has made a remarkable leap this year, jumping from the 54th percentile to the 74th percentile in state rankings—a rise of 255 spots to 312th in Georgia. This is the school's highest ranking in recent years and earns it a 4-star rating. The improvement is especially visible in upper-grade math and science. In 5th grade, 62% of students are now proficient in science, far outpacing the district (46.6%) and state (44.2%) averages—a dramatic turnaround from just 26% the year before. Similarly, 4th-grade math proficiency (65%) and 5th-grade math proficiency (53%) both exceed district and state averages. The school also stands out for its low chronic absenteeism rate of 10.7%, well below the district (16.4%) and state (17.7%) averages, which likely supports its academic gains. Compared to nearby schools, Battlefield now ranks ahead of Ringgold Elementary (598th), Graysville Elementary (444th), and Cloud Springs Elementary (496th), while Boynton Elementary (272nd) remains slightly ahead.

While the upper grades shine, 3rd-grade math proficiency (41.8%) trails the district (45.8%) and state (48.3%) averages, suggesting an opportunity to strengthen foundational skills earlier. The school is particularly effective at serving its female and male students, both ranking in the mid-70th percentiles, and its Special Education students rank in the 68th percentile—a positive sign of inclusive support. Notably, Battlefield achieves these results efficiently, spending $13,383 per student, which is less than several peers like Ringgold Elementary ($14,580) and Boynton Elementary ($14,394). For parents, this school offers a strong, cost-effective education with clear momentum and a focus on academic growth.
