Summary

Houston County High School is a large public high school in Warner Robins, GA, serving about 2,051 students in grades 9–12 as part of the Houston County district. This school stands out for its exceptional graduation rate of 96.8%—well above the state average of 87.2%—and its remarkable performance in Biology, where 90.3% of students scored proficient or above, nearly double the state average. The school also keeps chronic absenteeism low at 12.7%, and it ranks in the 92nd percentile statewide for its work with special education students, a notable strength. These achievements come while spending about $12,465 per student, less than several nearby schools that post weaker results.

However, Houston County High presents a clear contrast in math. Only 44.9% of students are proficient in Algebra I, which falls below both the state average (48.1%) and the district average (54.6%). This creates a 45-point gap between Biology and Algebra I scores—a much wider divide than at nearby Veterans High School (33.8-point gap) or Perry High School (29-point gap). U.S. History proficiency (34.5%) also trails the state average, though it is nearly double the district average. The school’s overall state ranking has slipped from 30th in 2020–2021 to 127th recently, even as absolute metrics like graduation rates have stayed strong.

Compared to neighboring districts, the differences are stark. Southwest High School in Bibb County posts just 8.0% Biology proficiency and a 4th-percentile state ranking, while Westside High School has a 47.1% chronic absenteeism rate. Houston County High’s 12.7% absenteeism and 90.3% Biology proficiency highlight a wide gap in outcomes across central Georgia. For parents, this school offers strong science instruction, excellent student retention, and effective support for special education—but families should ask how the school plans to close the Algebra I gap, which remains its most pressing academic challenge.
