Gwinnett Intervention Education Center (GIVE) West

Summary:

Gwinnett Intervention Education Center (GIVE) West is a public high school located in Norcross, Georgia, serving grades 6-12 with a total enrollment of 220 students. Despite being part of the Gwinnett County School District, which is ranked 65th out of 203 districts in Georgia, GIVE West has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Georgia high schools over the past decade, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

GIVE West faces significant challenges in terms of student achievement, graduation rates, and overall academic performance. The school has had a 0% four-year graduation rate for the past 5 school years, which is significantly lower than the state and district averages. Additionally, GIVE West's proficiency rates on the Georgia Milestones assessments are consistently well below the Gwinnett County and state averages across all subject areas and grade levels. For example, in 2023-2024, only 8.5% of GIVE West students were proficient or better in American Literature and Composition, compared to 46.6% in Gwinnett County and 42% statewide. Despite the high per-student spending and low student-teacher ratio, the school's outcomes remain well below the district and state averages.

Interestingly, the nearby high schools, such as McClure Health Science High School, Duluth High School, Meadowcreek High School, Paul Duke STEM High School, and Norcross High School, all have significantly higher graduation rates, test scores, and overall performance compared to GIVE West, despite being located in close proximity (within 5 miles) to the struggling school. This suggests that the challenges faced by GIVE West may be more systemic in nature and require a targeted approach to address the specific needs of its high-poverty student population.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
