Summary

Odom Elementary School in Moultrie, GA, serves 518 students in Pre-K through 5th grade as part of the Colquitt County School District, where 100% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Odom is a school of notable contrasts. Its greatest strength is with English Language Learner (ELL) students, who perform in the top 20% statewide—a 4-star rating that outshines every other subgroup at the school. This is a significant achievement, especially when compared to nearby schools. However, the school's overall ranking sits in the 30th percentile (1-star), and there is a dramatic gap in performance between student groups. While Hispanic students perform near the state median for their subgroup, White students at Odom rank in the bottom 2% statewide. This suggests the school has developed highly effective strategies for supporting language learners that may not be reaching all students equally. In math, 4th graders (45.6% proficient) outperform both 3rd graders (32.8%) and 5th graders (22.1%), with 5th grade math proficiency consistently lagging at roughly half the state average—a stark contrast to Norman Park Elementary School, where 5th graders achieve nearly 60% proficiency.

There are encouraging signs of progress. Chronic absenteeism has dropped dramatically from 21.0% to 11.2% over two years—now better than the district (15.1%) and state (17.7%) averages, and better than several higher-performing peers like Okapilco Elementary School (13.1%) and Cox Elementary School (14.1%). The school also improved its overall ranking from the 24th to 30th percentile. Odom spends $15,189 per student—more than higher-performing schools like Wright Elementary School ($13,693) and Sunset Elementary School—suggesting that funding alone isn't the issue. With a strong foundation in ELL support and improving attendance, Odom has building blocks to leverage, but the persistent 5th grade math challenge and wide subgroup gaps remain key areas for targeted attention.
