Summary

Centerville Elementary School in Centerville, GA, serves approximately 679 students in grades PK-5 within the Houston County School District. The school holds a 3-star rating and ranks in the 52nd percentile statewide, a modest improvement from last year, though its ranking has fluctuated over the past decade.

One of the school's standout strengths is its work with Hispanic students, who rank in the 83rd percentile statewide—far outpacing the school's overall performance. This suggests effective strategies that could benefit other groups. In math, 5th graders (45.1% proficient) actually beat the state average, while 3rd and 4th graders trail district benchmarks by 9 to 17 points. Science is a clear bright spot: 5th grade proficiency jumped from 34.1% to 47.3% over three years, now nearly matching the district and exceeding the state. Chronic absenteeism has also improved significantly, dropping from 21.2% to 16.3%—now below the state average. Compared to nearby schools, Centerville sits below higher-performing neighbors like Lake Joy Elementary and Quail Run Elementary (where 5th grade math proficiency is 67.4%), but above lower-ranked schools like Westside Elementary and Miller Elementary.

The school is clearly in transition. The percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch jumped from 63% to nearly 99% in just one year, a dramatic shift that likely reflects changes in the community or how the metric is calculated. Per-student spending has risen to $14,278—higher than several better-performing nearby schools—and the student-teacher ratio is a favorable 14.2:1. While academic outcomes haven't yet matched these investments, the school's success with Hispanic students and improving attendance suggest solid foundations. With continued focus, Centerville appears well-positioned to build on its strengths and reverse its recent ranking decline.
