Summary

Dutchtown Middle School in Hampton, GA, serves approximately 1,108 students in grades 6-8 as part of the Henry County School District, where about 63% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Dutchtown Middle stands out for its exceptional advanced coursework. In 2025-2026, 88.3% of students scored proficient or better on the Algebra I End of Course assessment—nearly double the district average (35.1%) and far above the state average (48.1%). The school also shines in HS Physical Science (79.6% proficiency vs. 63.8% district and 60.9% state). Additionally, Dutchtown ranks in the 91st percentile statewide for English Language Learner students, earning a 5-star rating for this subgroup. The school also keeps chronic absenteeism (16.7%) below both district (19.6%) and state (17.7%) averages, and it outperforms most nearby Henry County schools in overall state ranking—including McDonough Middle, Luella Middle, Stockbridge Middle, Eagle's Landing Middle, and Hampton Middle.

However, the school presents a clear contrast between its advanced programs and standard grade-level classes. While Algebra I results are stellar, only about 27% of 6th, 7th, and 8th graders scored proficient in standard mathematics—well below state averages (40-46%). Science proficiency (20.7%) and social studies (31%) also trail state benchmarks, though both improved significantly from the prior year. Compared to Impact Academy Middle, Dutchtown excels at accelerating top students (88.3% vs. 68% in Algebra I) but lags in standard math (27.1% vs. 48.4% in 6th grade). With a student-teacher ratio of 18.1 and per-student spending of $11,593—below several nearby schools—Dutchtown appears to allocate resources efficiently. The school's overall 2-star rating reflects mixed outcomes, but the recent upward trend in state ranking and test scores suggests a promising path forward.

Poor system and individual school for special education services. Take your child and money out of this system if they require services!! Beware. Close Quote

Friday, March 10, 2017

The first mistake was to buy a house in this school district, what a joke. I would never place my child in this school. I went in to inquire as to what they teach in the 8th grade, The counselor could only answer that they teach according to the guidelines given by the state. As I was sitting in her office in front of her desk, She decided that it was time for her manicure, Talking to me and clipping her finger nails at the same time( You could say that she was "MULTI-TASKED" I found this to be so unprofessional and gross, holding back my puke, I managed to ask if there is any type of reference material available for each subject taught, According to her "the guidance counselor", There are no books and no online support, If your child doesn't understand what the teacher is trying to teach your child is SOL.
If you read other reviews you will see that the only help that your child will receive is from classmates.... Gee I hope that classmate giving the course instructions on how to complete the assignment truly understands the subject at hand or your child will receive the same failing grade.
I am very disappointed in the school and the board of education for allowing this type of teaching, The 1,000's that I pay in property and school tax every year and the money received from the Georgia lottery, you would figure that they could afford a $20.00 book or an online accessible book for your child's reference that will help them achieve a better or passing grade.
After talking with the counselor, I quickly came to the conclusion that teachings are directed by Morons and inept counselors creating a stultifying effect of this compulsory school system leaving us with no other choice other than private, I hold each and every one that is sitting on the board of education accountable for this failing school and the way our kids are being taught, we need to stand up and get rid of all of them and start fresh- even if it takes creating a new city just to get rid of them all at once, I am all for it.
No, I will not place my child in this failing Dutchtown school that is run by imbeciles. What a disappointment, Good luck to all that have placed their child in this puerile run Dutchtown school. When your kid graduates, Just remember "McDonald's is always hiring". Close Quote
