Summary

J.C. Booth Middle School in Peachtree City, GA, serves 1,115 students in grades 6-8 as part of the highly-rated Fayette County district, and it has earned a 5-star rating every year for the past decade, never falling below the 91st percentile statewide.

The school's standout strength is mathematics. In Algebra I, 100% of tested students scored proficient or above—a perfect score that more than doubles the state average (48.1%) and far exceeds the district average (72.3%). This is not a one-year fluke; proficiency has stayed above 97% for four straight years. Math scores are strong across all grade levels too, with 8th grade math at 83.3% proficient versus 46.3% statewide. J.C. Booth also excels at supporting students who often face extra challenges: it ranks in the 97th percentile for African American students, 95th for English Language Learners, and 95th for special education students—placing it among the top 25 schools in Georgia for each group. Chronic absenteeism is low at 9.3%, about half the state rate, and has dropped 36% over three years.

Compared to nearby schools, J.C. Booth stands out. It edges out Whitewater Middle School in 7th and 8th grade math, while Flat Rock Middle School and Bennett's Mill Middle School trail by 16-26 points in several subjects. Notably, J.C. Booth achieves these results while spending less per student ($12,453) than every nearby Fayette County school. One area to watch: 8th grade science dipped to 37.8% proficient in 2022-2023, though it has since improved to 69.7% on the high school physical science exam. The school's 2025-2026 ranking of 52nd statewide is its lowest in a decade, but this appears to reflect other schools improving faster rather than any decline in J.C. Booth's own performance.

I went here for 1 year when I was in middle school. Awful administration and awful curriculum. Worst middle school to go to if one is performing at an above-average level. Lack of accelerated classes. Hallways smell like chlorine all of the time. Close Quote

The girls are very cruel with new students. They bulling other girls just because they are pretty. The school need educate students and parents to understand the diversity of population and understand the consecuences of bulling. (legal, emotional and sometimes students are depress and thinking in suicide. They need to put a zero-tolerance to bulling and no close the eyes to this community problem that start in HOME.

I was nervous before my eldest son entered J.C. Booth, but now, near the end of his third year there, I could not be more pleased. Mr. Lombard, Mr. Plauche, and Mrs. Couch all truly care about the students and often verbalize this to the students themselves. The teachers love to teach the students, and the 6th grade math teacher even told me she looked forward to every day so she could learn something from the kids. We had one issue with bullying at the beginning of 6th grade, and when we appealed to the faculty for help it was swiftly and deftly handled so all kids would be protected. It is no secret that the Booth Science Olympiad team does consistently well at Nationals every year, and this year my son earned a spot to compete in the Georgia Geographic Bee. The enrichment program is wonderful, the athletic program is great, and the music programs are diverse. My son has been in the band for three years and says that leaving Mr. Burton is the hardest thing about matriculating to high school. I recognize that there are poor choices that kids can make anywhere, but at Booth it was not a given that these choices would be all my child was offered, in fact, in 8th grade he joined the Vice-Principal's club, and was selected to raise the flags everyday. I love this school. Close Quote
