Summary

Goodyear Elementary School in Brunswick, GA, serves approximately 515 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Glynn County School District, and it has been showing steady signs of improvement in recent years.

Goodyear has made meaningful academic progress, particularly in math and science. For example, 4th grade math proficiency jumped from 15.2% in 2022-2023 to 41.5% in 2025-2026, and 5th grade science improved from 6.7% to 32.8% over the same period. The school's overall state ranking has climbed from the 6th percentile in 2022-2023 to the 27th percentile in 2025-2026, moving from a 0-star to a 1-star rating. While these gains are encouraging, Goodyear still trails many nearby schools. In 5th grade math, for instance, Goodyear's proficiency rate of 31.3% compares to Greer Elementary School at 68.1% and St. Simons Elementary School at 65.7%. Even Sterling Elementary School, which serves a similar student population, ranks in the 54th percentile with 3 stars, suggesting that poverty alone doesn't explain the gap.

One of Goodyear's standout successes is its dramatic reduction in chronic absenteeism, which fell from 26.3% in 2021-2022 to 15.9% in 2025-2026—now below the state average of 17.7%. The school also invests heavily in its students, spending $18,199 per pupil and maintaining a favorable student-teacher ratio of 11.6 to 1. However, there are areas needing attention. While African American students at Goodyear perform in the 64th percentile statewide, Hispanic students and English Language Learners rank in the bottom 5%, suggesting targeted support for these groups could be a high-leverage opportunity. The school's improvement trajectory is positive, and with continued focus, these investments appear to be starting to pay off.
