Summary

Clinch County High School in Homerville, GA, serves approximately 335 students in grades 9-12 in a rural southern Georgia community, and is part of the Clinch County district.

One of the most impressive things about this school is its students' attendance. Only 6.2% of students are chronically absent—meaning they miss a significant number of school days—compared to the state average of 17.7%. This is a remarkable achievement, especially considering that 91% of students now qualify for free or reduced lunch, a sharp jump from 63% just a year earlier. The school has steadily improved its attendance over the past four years, and it far outperforms nearby Atkinson County High School (10.9%) and Lanier County High School (17.3%). In academics, Biology is a clear bright spot, with 47.3% of students scoring proficient—right at the state average and up significantly from last year. The school also spends more per student ($17,253) than its neighbors and maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio of 12.2:1.

However, there are areas that need attention. The graduation rate, while still above the state average at 88.6%, dropped notably from 96.3% the year before. Proficiency in Algebra I (32.2%), U.S. History (29.2%), and American Literature (26.3%) all trail state averages by significant margins. The school's overall ranking places it in the 47th percentile statewide, which is comparable to Lanier County but behind Atkinson County. While the school has shown it can keep students engaged and in school, the next step is translating that strong attendance into stronger academic results across all subjects. The recent increase in spending has not yet produced proportional gains in test scores, though the improvements in attendance and Biology suggest investments may be starting to pay off.
