Summary

Berkmar Middle School is a public middle school located in Lilburn, Georgia, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 1,065 students. It is part of the Gwinnett County School District, which is ranked 67 out of 206 districts in Georgia and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger. However, Berkmar Middle School has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Georgia middle schools over the past 10 years, with a ranking between 244 and 402 and a 1-3 star rating from SchoolDigger.

One of the key factors that differentiates Berkmar Middle School is its significantly underperforming test scores compared to the Gwinnett County and Georgia state averages across most subject areas and grade levels. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 29.5% of 6th graders, 26.4% of 7th graders, and 27.2% of 8th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to the Gwinnett County averages of 49.4%, 48.7%, and 46.9%, respectively. Additionally, Berkmar Middle School has an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 89.21% to 91.55% over the past few years, which is significantly higher than the surrounding schools.

Despite these challenges, Berkmar Middle School has a relatively high per-student spending, ranging from $8,439 to $9,666 over the past few years, and a lower student-teacher ratio compared to the surrounding schools. However, the school's academic performance has remained stagnant over the past 10 years, suggesting that the school may need to re-evaluate its strategies and resource allocation to better support its students and improve their educational outcomes.
