Summary

Coffee County High School in Douglas, GA, serves about 1,373 students in grades 9-12 and is the largest high school in the Coffee County district. The school has shown real improvement in its overall state ranking, climbing from the 40th percentile in 2023-2024 to the 56th percentile in 2025-2026, earning a 3-star rating.

The school's biggest strengths are its graduation rate and dropout prevention. At 95.0%, the graduation rate for 2024-2025 beats both the district (92.5%) and state (87.2%) averages, while the dropout rate of 1.5% is well below the state's 2.4%. Biology is also a bright spot, with proficiency rates that have met or exceeded state averages in most recent years. However, chronic absenteeism is a serious concern—31.9% of students are chronically absent, which is dramatically higher than the district (21.0%) and state (17.7%) averages, and this rate has been climbing steadily since 2022-2023. This is puzzling because even with high absenteeism, students who stay enrolled tend to graduate. Algebra I proficiency is another area of concern, showing 0% proficiency for three consecutive years, which stands in stark contrast to district averages around 30-33% and state averages around 44-48%. U.S. History proficiency (29.3%) also trails the state average (38.5%), though it has improved from previous years.

Comparing to nearby schools offers useful context. Wiregrass Regional College and Career Academy, the district's smaller career academy (215 students), has a much lower chronic absenteeism rate (11.4%) and a 71% Algebra I proficiency rate, though it serves a specialized, self-selected student population. Atkinson County High School, about 16 miles away, also has far lower absenteeism (10.9%) and better Algebra I results (48.6%) while serving a student body with a higher percentage of economically disadvantaged students. These comparisons suggest that the attendance and math challenges at Coffee County High are not inevitable and may respond to targeted interventions. The school spends about $14,027 per student and maintains a favorable 14.3:1 student-teacher ratio, so resources are comparable to or better than peer schools.
