Better than 19% of Georgia elementary schools

Summary

Chicopee Elementary School in Gainesville, GA, serves approximately 809 students in grades PK-5 as part of Hall County Schools, and it has recently shown its strongest academic gains in five years.

After several years of ranking in the bottom 5% of Georgia elementary schools, Chicopee jumped from the 5th percentile to the 19th percentile statewide in the 2025-2026 school year—a move of nearly 200 positions. This improvement is most visible in math. Third grade math proficiency rose from 19.2% to 32.3%, and 5th grade math jumped from 20.3% to 32%. These gains are especially encouraging because district and state averages stayed flat during the same period. The school now trails the district average in 3rd grade math by only 8 percentage points, compared to a 21.7-point gap the year before. Chicopee also outperforms Lyman Hall Elementary in most subjects, including 3rd grade math (32.3% vs. 17.7%) and 4th grade math (30% vs. 22.3%).

Despite these gains, 5th grade science remains a major challenge, with only 9.8% of students proficient—about one-third of the district average and less than one-quarter of the state average. This is the lowest science score among all comparable schools. However, Chicopee shows a relative strength in supporting English Language Learners, ranking in the 42nd percentile statewide for that subgroup. The school also maintains a chronic absenteeism rate of 16.1%, which is better than both the district (18.6%) and state (17.7%) averages. With a favorable student-teacher ratio of 13.7:1 and per-student spending of $13,645—higher than better-performing World Language Academy ($11,535)—Chicopee is investing heavily in its students. The question now is whether this year’s momentum can be sustained, especially given the school’s history of improvement followed by regression.

This school does not deserve to have a one-star rating. The test scores are not as high as other schools, but that could certainly be directly related to the fact that 75%-85% of the students are second language learners and the tests are administered in English, a language many of them only speak at school. Or it could be related to the fact that 92% of the students live in poverty. It's hard to do well on a test in a language you don't fully understand, when you don't have a bed or you don't get the medication you need when you are sick, or you are homeless. These type of rankings are completely bogus. It tells you nothing useful at all, except that the students are not as good test takers as other schools.
Chicopee is a wonderful, warm place where the teachers work diligently to meet the needs of the students. Close Quote
