of 1,222 Georgia Elementary Schools

Better than 19% of Georgia elementary schools

Summary

Jefferson Parkway Elementary School in Newnan, GA, serves approximately 450 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Coweta County School District, where it currently holds a 1-star rating and has seen its statewide ranking decline from the 44th percentile a decade ago to the 19th percentile today.

For parents, the most important thing to know is that Jefferson Parkway faces significant academic challenges, particularly in math. In the most recent testing year, math proficiency ranged from just 20.9% in 5th grade to 29% in 3rd grade. This is dramatically lower than nearby schools—for example, Elm Street Elementary, just 2.3 miles away, posted math proficiency rates between 65.8% and 67.6%, while Thomas Crossroads Elementary reached 67.3% to 79.6%. Even Ruth Hill Elementary, which has a similarly high poverty rate, outperformed Jefferson Parkway in most math categories. One bright spot: 5th grade science (34.4% proficient) was notably stronger than 5th grade math, suggesting a relative strength in that subject. Also, the school maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio of 10.7:1, which is better than many peers.

Chronic absenteeism is a major concern. At 21.2%, Jefferson Parkway's rate is nearly double that of Elm Street Elementary (10.4%) and Northside Elementary (11.0%), and it has risen over the past year even as the state average improved. The school also spends $17,562 per student—more than several higher-performing nearby schools—yet outcomes remain low. With 86.67% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, Jefferson Parkway serves a high-poverty population, but the comparison with Elm Street (55% poverty) shows that poverty alone doesn't dictate results. Addressing attendance and finding more effective uses of resources could be key levers for improvement.
