Summary

Twin City Elementary School in Twin City, GA, serves 515 students in Pre-K through 5th grade and has earned a 4-star rating, placing it in the top 30% of Georgia elementary schools for four consecutive years.

This school stands out for its consistently strong academic performance. In 5th-grade mathematics, for example, 70.8% of Twin City students met proficiency standards, compared to 42.9% for the Emanuel County district and 44.1% statewide. That same year, Swainsboro Elementary School—which serves the same district and similar student demographics—posted just a 30.7% proficiency rate in the same subject. Twin City also outperformed nearby Portal Elementary School (63.5%) and Metter Elementary School in math. Science scores followed a similar pattern, with Twin City's 5th graders achieving 54.9% proficiency versus 44.2% statewide. This excellence is not limited to one grade—math proficiency stayed above 45% in every grade level tested, suggesting a well-aligned curriculum that builds year after year.

Beyond test scores, Twin City shows notable strengths in student engagement and efficient use of resources. Chronic absenteeism dropped dramatically from 22.8% to 16.8% in the most recent year—now better than both the district (17.4%) and state (17.7%) averages. The school also achieves its results while spending less per student ($13,296) than peers like Metter Elementary ($15,224) and Portal Elementary ($16,107). Perhaps most telling is the school's trajectory: it climbed from the 43rd percentile statewide in 2018-2019 to the 73rd percentile today, a sustained improvement that reflects deep, systemic changes rather than a one-year fluke. For parents, this is a school that delivers strong academics, improving attendance, and a track record of steady growth—all while serving a diverse student body effectively.
