Summary

Evans Middle School in Newnan, GA, serves 736 students in grades 6–8 as part of the Coweta County School District, a district ranked in the 83rd percentile statewide.

Evans is a stable school—it has held a 3-star rating for a decade—but that stability looks a lot like stagnation when you compare it to nearby schools. The most pressing concern is math: proficiency drops sharply as students advance, from 45.2% in 6th grade to just 33.1% in 8th grade. That's the opposite of the district and state trend, where 8th graders typically outperform 6th graders. By 8th grade, Evans students are 18.8 points behind the district average in math (33.1% vs. 51.9%) and 14.3 points behind in social studies. Meanwhile, Blake Bass Middle School (ranked 15th statewide) and Madras Middle School (ranked 47th) post math proficiency rates in the 56–72% range across all grades. Evans' 8th grade math score is actually closer to Smokey Road Middle School (29.5%), which serves a higher-poverty population, than to the top-tier Coweta schools.

There are some bright spots. Evans' 8th grade science scores beat the state average by 11 points (40.7% vs. 29.7%), and chronic absenteeism has improved from a pandemic peak of 24.1% to 19.4%—now essentially matching the district average. The school also spends more per student ($14,571) than most district peers and maintains a favorable 13.6:1 student-teacher ratio. However, that investment hasn't translated into stronger outcomes, and the school's subgroup rankings (ranging from the 58th percentile for female students to the 19th percentile for multi-racial students) suggest no group is being exceptionally well served. For parents, the key takeaway is this: Evans is a solid, adequately-resourced school, but it's not improving, and the widening gap with district peers—especially in 8th grade math—is a trend worth watching closely.
