Summary

Summerour Middle School is a public middle school located in Norcross, Georgia, serving 1,411 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Gwinnett County School District, which is ranked 67th out of 206 districts in Georgia and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's relatively high per-student spending of $9,040 and low student-teacher ratio ranging from 11.8 to 13 students per teacher, Summerour Middle School consistently underperforms compared to the Gwinnett County and Georgia state averages on standardized tests. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the school's proficiency rates were significantly lower than the county and state in English Language Arts (6th-8th grade), Mathematics (6th-8th grade), and Social Studies (8th grade). Additionally, Summerour Middle School has a very high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 89.62% to 90.01% in recent years, which is significantly higher than the surrounding schools in the Gwinnett County district.

When comparing Summerour Middle School to other nearby schools in the Gwinnett County district, it becomes clear that the school is underperforming relative to its peers. Schools like Coleman Middle School and Pinckneyville Middle School, which serve similar demographics, are able to achieve significantly higher proficiency rates on standardized tests. Addressing the challenges faced by Summerour Middle School, such as effective resource allocation and supporting students from low-income families, could be crucial in improving the educational outcomes for the students.
