Summary

Westmont Elementary School in Martinez, GA, serves approximately 720 students in Pre-K through 5th grade as part of the highly rated Columbia County School District. The school has earned a 4-star rating for over a decade, ranking in the 77th percentile statewide—a testament to its consistent, solid performance.

Westmont stands out in several key areas. Its 4th grade math proficiency rate of 73.4% is a clear bright spot, exceeding the district average and outperforming nearby schools like Evans Elementary (63.2%) and Martinez Elementary (58.2%). The school also excels in serving students with special needs, ranking in the 75th percentile statewide—a sign of strong, differentiated support. Additionally, Westmont's chronic absenteeism rate of 12.4% is better than the state average and comparable to higher-ranked peers, even though the school serves a larger percentage of students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds (60% free/reduced lunch) than top-tier schools like Lewiston Elementary (31%). This makes its upper-quartile results particularly impressive.

While Westmont's overall ranking places it below the top tier of Columbia County schools like Lewiston (93rd percentile) and Blue Ridge Elementary (89th), it outperforms schools with similar demographics, such as Grovetown Elementary (62nd percentile). The school also achieves these results efficiently, spending less per student ($12,905) than several peers, including Brookwood Elementary ($15,445). The main areas for growth are 3rd and 5th grade math, which lag behind the district average, and 5th grade science, which sits in the middle of the pack. However, with a favorable 14.1:1 student-teacher ratio and a decade of stability, Westmont is well-positioned to build on its strengths and continue serving its community effectively.
