Summary

Kings Chapel Elementary School in Perry, GA, serves 690 students in grades PK through 5 as part of the Houston County school district, and it stands out as a solidly above-average school with particular strengths in math, science, and student attendance.

One of the most impressive things about Kings Chapel is its exceptionally low chronic absenteeism rate of just 8.5%—less than half the state average of 17.7% and well below nearby schools like David A. Perdue Primary (13.9%) and Tucker Elementary (13.1%). The school has improved this rate steadily over the past three years, from 14.4% down to its current level. Academically, Kings Chapel excels in mathematics, with 3rd and 4th graders scoring roughly 10-11 percentage points above the district average, and 5th grade science scores (59.6% proficient) beating the state by more than 15 points. The school also achieves these results efficiently, spending about $12,869 per student—roughly $2,000-$2,600 less than nearby schools like Langston Road Elementary and Matthew Arthur Elementary that post similar or lower rankings.

Kings Chapel has seen its economically disadvantaged student population rise from 31.5% to 43.6% over the past few years, yet it has maintained strong academic outcomes—a sign of effective instructional programs. The school does face some challenges, including a slight dip in its state ranking (now 80th percentile, down from a peak of 92nd) and a notable gap where male students rank 15 percentile points higher than female students. Additionally, 5th grade math shows a drop-off compared to 3rd and 4th grades, though it still beats state averages. While current ELA scores are not yet available for this year, historical data shows strong but somewhat inconsistent results across grade levels. Overall, Kings Chapel is a well-managed, efficient school that outperforms its demographic profile and offers a stable, supportive environment for students.
