Summary

Myers Middle School serves approximately 503 students in grades 6-8 in Savannah, Georgia, as part of the Savannah-Chatham County district, where 93% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Myers faces significant academic challenges, with proficiency rates in math, science, and social studies running well below district and state averages. For example, only 4.8% of 6th graders and 6.3% of 8th graders met math proficiency standards, compared to roughly 26-46% across the district and state. The contrast with nearby schools is stark: Coastal Middle School, just over three miles away, posted 53.3% proficiency in 6th grade math—about 11 times higher. Even DeRenne Middle School, which serves a similar demographic profile, outperformed Myers in most subjects. Algebra I results are particularly concerning, with only 4.2% of Myers students scoring proficient versus 98.2% at Coastal and 90.5% at Southwest Middle School. Notably, the school spends $17,557 per student—more than several higher-performing nearby schools—yet outcomes remain persistently low, ranking Myers in the bottom 3% of Georgia middle schools for the past decade.

There are genuine bright spots worth acknowledging. Chronic absenteeism has dropped dramatically from 56.5% in 2021-2022 to 21.6% in 2025-2026, a nearly 35-point improvement that suggests family engagement efforts are working. English Language Learner students perform at the 32nd percentile statewide—the school's strongest subgroup—indicating effective targeted support. Additionally, 8th grade social studies proficiency (10.9%) outpaced math and science, and students in high school-level physical science scored more than double their peers in regular science. While these gains haven't yet translated into broad academic improvement, the attendance trend and relative strengths in specific areas suggest that with continued focus—particularly on expanding access to advanced coursework and building on successful support programs—Myers has a foundation to build upon.
