Summary

Hampton Elementary School in Hampton, GA, serves approximately 466 students in grades PK-5 within the Henry County School District, where about 77% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Hampton Elementary has faced academic challenges, ranking in the bottom quintile of Georgia elementary schools with a 1-star rating. However, there are several encouraging signs. The school has made remarkable progress in reducing chronic absenteeism, dropping from 33.8% in 2022-2023 to 19.9% in 2025-2026—a 41% improvement that now nearly matches the district average. The school also invests heavily in its students, spending $16,925 per pupil—significantly more than nearby Dutchtown Elementary ($12,519) and Rocky Creek Elementary ($13,920)—while maintaining a favorable student-teacher ratio of 12.3:1. Additionally, African American students at Hampton perform notably better than the school's overall average, ranking in the 37th percentile statewide.

While 3rd grade math proficiency has shown promising gains—climbing from 19.4% in 2022-2023 to 36.1% in 2025-2026—there is a concerning decline in upper elementary math, with 5th grade proficiency falling to just 19.2%, well below Rocky Creek Elementary's 44.4%. The school's higher spending hasn't yet translated into proportional academic gains compared to higher-performing neighbors like Rocky Creek (58th percentile) or Dutchtown. However, the combination of improved attendance, increased investment, and smaller class sizes suggests Hampton is building a foundation that may yield better results in the coming years, particularly as early-grade interventions take hold.
