Summary

Jordan Hill Road Elementary School in Griffin, GA, serves 396 students in Pre-K through 5th grade and is part of the Griffin-Spalding County school district, which currently holds a 1-star rating. The school itself also carries a 1-star rating for the 2025-2026 school year, ranking in the 14th percentile statewide—a notable drop from the previous year’s 29th percentile. While this decline is significant, it’s important to note that the school is not among the lowest-performing in its immediate area. For example, in 5th-grade science, Jordan Hill Road’s proficiency rate of 24.6% is nearly three times higher than Moore Elementary School’s 8.7% and almost double Anne Street Elementary School’s 14.3%. The school serves a high-poverty population, with 84.34% of students eligible for free or reduced lunch.

One of the most encouraging findings is a clear strength in 4th-grade math. In the 2025-2026 school year, 34.4% of 4th graders were proficient in math—above the district average of 32.8% and a strong improvement from 26.4% two years earlier. This same group of students also performed relatively well as 3rd graders, suggesting a specific cohort or instructional strategy that is working well. However, 5th-grade math tells a different story: only 17.6% of 5th graders were proficient, a sharp drop from 25.4% the prior year and well below the state average of 44.1%. This pattern of weaker performance in upper elementary grades appeared in both math and science, pointing to a systemic challenge as students transition to more complex coursework.

On a positive note, chronic absenteeism at Jordan Hill Road is a relative bright spot. At 18.5%, it is significantly better than the district average of 24.0% and lower than several nearby schools, including Atkinson Elementary School (25.0%) and Cowan Road Elementary School. The school also spends $14,711 per student, which is above the state average, though less than some peers like Beaverbrook Elementary School ($17,416). This suggests that while resources are available, the school’s challenges may be more tied to socioeconomic factors and instructional practices than to funding alone. For parents, the key takeaway is that Jordan Hill Road has pockets of strength—especially in 4th-grade math—but faces real hurdles in supporting students through 5th grade.
