Summary

Norman Park Elementary School in Norman Park, GA, serves approximately 581 students in grades PK-5 within the Colquitt County school district, and has earned a 4-star rating after a remarkable turnaround from a 1-star rating just seven years ago.

This school has become a standout example of high achievement despite economic challenges—100% of its students qualify for free or reduced lunch, yet the school now ranks in the 80th percentile statewide, up from the 28th percentile in 2018-2019. The most impressive gains are in mathematics: 4th graders posted a 74.4% proficiency rate in 2025-2026, far exceeding the district (56.5%) and state (50.1%) averages, while 5th grade math reached 59.8% proficiency versus 44.6% district and 44.1% state. Science has also become a strength, jumping from 32.6% proficiency in 2023-2024 to 55.1% in 2025-2026, surpassing both district and state averages. Perhaps most notably, the school ranks in the 94th percentile statewide for English Language Learner achievement (13th out of 214 schools) and the 84th percentile for Hispanic students, demonstrating effective, targeted instruction for diverse learners.

Compared to nearby schools in the same district, Norman Park's results are striking. Its 4th grade math proficiency is nearly double that of Doerun Elementary School (38.5%) and well above Cox Elementary School (44.6%) and Odom Elementary School (45.6%), even though all serve similar high-poverty populations. The school also excels in attendance, with chronic absenteeism dropping from 18.6% to 9.6% in two years—now well below the district (15.1%) and state (17.7%) averages. With a favorable 12.9:1 student-teacher ratio and steady investment in student support, Norman Park demonstrates that economic factors don't determine outcomes, making it a model for high-poverty, high-performance schools across Georgia.
