Summary

Morrow Middle School serves 794 students in grades 6-8 in Morrow, Georgia, as part of the Clayton County School District, and has been showing steady improvement in recent years.

Morrow Middle has climbed from the 21st percentile statewide in 2022-2023 to the 31st percentile in 2025-2026—its highest ranking in nearly a decade—and now earns 2 stars after several years at 1 star. The school's most impressive achievement is its work with English Language Learner (ELL) students, where it ranks in the 90th percentile statewide and earns a 5-star rating, placing it among the top 16 of 166 schools in Georgia for ELL outcomes. This is a remarkable strength, especially given that 100% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school also outperforms its district in 7th and 8th grade math (26.5% and 30.0% proficient vs. 25.1% and 26.6% district averages) and shows a notable bright spot in 8th grade science, where 25.6% of students are proficient compared to just 17.5% district-wide. Chronic absenteeism, while still above the state average, has consistently run about 7 percentage points below the district average for five straight years.

Compared to nearby schools, Morrow Middle sits in the middle tier. It significantly outperforms Forest Park Middle School (just 0.35 miles away, at the 6th percentile) and Jonesboro Middle School (10th percentile), while trailing M.D. Roberts Middle School (41st percentile) and Babb Middle School (36th percentile). Per-student spending has risen steadily from $11,335 to $16,016 over four years, coinciding with the school's improving results. While proficiency rates in most subjects still lag state averages, and African American and Special Education students may benefit from additional support, the school's proven success with ELL students demonstrates that focused interventions can produce meaningful gains.
