Summary

Impact Academy Middle School in McDonough, GA, serves 339 students in grades 6-8 and is part of the Henry County district, earning a 3-star rating and ranking in the 52nd percentile statewide—a solid mid-range performance that stands out among its nearby peers.

The school's biggest strength is mathematics. In 6th grade, 48.4% of students are proficient in math—nearly double the district rate of 25.9% and well above the state's 40.7%. This is especially striking when compared to McDonough Middle School, just 0.71 miles away, where only 16.4% of 6th graders reach proficiency. Impact Academy also excels in advanced coursework: 68% of students pass Algebra I (vs. 35.1% district and 48.1% state) and 70% pass HS Physical Science (vs. 63.8% district). Among seven nearby Henry County middle schools, Impact ranks 1st in 6th grade math and 2nd in 7th grade math, 8th grade math, and Algebra I—trailing only Union Grove Middle and Ola Middle School in those areas. The school also reports remarkably low chronic absenteeism at just 7.7%, compared to 19.6% district and 17.7% state averages, and maintains a favorable 15.3:1 student-teacher ratio—the lowest among comparison schools.

While math and advanced science are clear strengths, standard-level 8th grade science (23.1% vs. 29.7% state) and social studies (27.1% vs. 40.2% state) lag behind. Still, the school's overall ranking (275th of 578) far exceeds most nearby schools, including Stockbridge Middle (521st), Luella Middle (512th), and Eagle's Landing Middle (497th). With about 51% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, Impact Academy demonstrates that strong attendance and a focused math program can yield impressive results, making it a standout option for families in the McDonough area.
