Park Elementary School

Public Grades PK, KG-4
Summary

Park Elementary School is a public elementary school located in Hamilton, Georgia, serving grades PK-4 with a total enrollment of 570 students. The school is part of the Harris County School District, which is ranked 15th out of 206 districts in Georgia and has a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Park Elementary School has shown mixed performance on the Milestones Assessment compared to the Harris County and Georgia averages. In the 2024-2025 school year, Park Elementary had higher proficiency rates in 3rd and 4th grade Math compared to the county and state, but their English Language Arts proficiency rates were lower. The school also has a relatively high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 55.89% to 60.18% in recent years, which is higher than the nearby schools in the Harris County district.

When comparing Park Elementary to other schools outside of the Harris County district, the performance gap becomes more pronounced. Schools in the Muscogee County and Meriwether County districts, such as Double Churches Elementary and Mountain View Elementary, have significantly lower test scores and higher percentages of students receiving free/reduced lunch compared to Park Elementary. The school's relatively low student-teacher ratio could suggest a need for further analysis of how resources are being utilized to support student learning.

Open Quote My son has been at Park for 5 years now and I don't care what those test scores say - Park is an excellent school with amazing, loving, caring teachers and a top notch education. My son has had access to hands on learning, technology in every classroom, innovative teaching methods, ability to demonstrate his creativity, and encouraged at every corner to exceed in everything he does. We love Park and I would recommend this school to ANYONE! Close Quote
