Summary

Lithia Springs Elementary School serves approximately 500 students in grades PK-5 in the Douglas County School District, located in Lithia Springs, Georgia. The school has climbed from the bottom quarter of Georgia elementary schools a few years ago to a solid mid-tier ranking (50th percentile statewide), earning a 2-star rating for the 2025-2026 school year.

One of the school's standout strengths is its 4th grade mathematics program. In the most recent testing cycle, 57.6% of 4th graders scored proficient in math—well above both the district (44%) and state (50.1%) averages. This performance even exceeds nearby Clarkdale Elementary, Austell Elementary, and Hendricks Elementary in the higher-performing Cobb County district. However, math results vary significantly by grade level—5th grade math proficiency (30.2%) lags well behind both the state average (44.1%) and the school's own 4th grade results, suggesting a transition challenge that families may want to ask about. Science scores have also fluctuated year to year, though the school remains competitive with its district average.

Attendance is a clear bright spot. The school's chronic absenteeism rate of 15.0% is well below the district average (22.1%) and even better than the state average (17.7%). The school also achieves strong results with specific student groups, ranking in the top quarter of Georgia schools for African American students and in the top third for English Language Learners. Notably, Lithia Springs spends less per student ($14,840) than most nearby elementary schools—including Eastside Elementary ($15,333), Beulah Elementary ($15,833), and Factory Shoals Elementary ($15,374)—while achieving comparable or better outcomes. Among nearby Douglas County schools, Lithia Springs ranks in the middle, outperforming Sweetwater Elementary and Mount Carmel Elementary while trailing Annette Winn Elementary by a narrow margin.
