Summary

Brookwood Elementary School in Grovetown, GA, serves 559 students in Pre-K through 5th grade and is part of the highly rated Columbia County School District, which holds a 5-star district rating.

Brookwood has shown remarkable, steady improvement over the past decade, climbing from the 58th percentile in 2015-2016 to the 80th percentile statewide today—a jump of 265 spots in the rankings. The school's most impressive achievement is its work with special education students, ranking in the top 7% of all Georgia elementary schools for this group. It also performs exceptionally well with its African American students, ranking in the 87th percentile. In the most recent testing cycle, 4th grade math proficiency hit 75.3%, well above both the state average (50.1%) and the district average (70.8%). Chronic absenteeism has dropped dramatically from 19.2% to 12.7% over four years, now better than both district and state averages. One area to watch: while female students rank in the 85th percentile, male students rank in the 73rd percentile, a 12-point gap. Science proficiency, while above the state average, trails the district slightly.

Compared to nearby schools, Brookwood sits in the middle of its district peers—behind Lewiston Elementary School, Blue Ridge Elementary School, and Evans Elementary School, but ahead of Westmont Elementary School, its closest neighbor just under a mile away. Notably, Brookwood has surpassed Westmont in recent years despite serving a similar student population. The contrast with nearby Richmond County schools is stark—Barton Chapel Elementary School ranks near the bottom statewide, while Brookwood's math proficiency is roughly eight times higher. For families, Brookwood offers a strong, improving option with exceptional support for students who often struggle elsewhere, though its higher per-student spending doesn't always translate to better outcomes than more efficient district peers.

2nd generation of students attending this el. Very close knit school. You feel like family. Some teachers have thought my children and are now teaching my children's children. Close Quote
