Summary

Jasper County Middle School in Monticello, GA, serves 647 students in grades 6-8 and is part of the Jasper County district, located about 60 miles southeast of Atlanta.

The most impressive story at this school is its Algebra I program. In 2025-2026, 96.3% of students scored proficient or better on the Algebra I End of Course exam—nearly double the state average of 48.1% and more than triple the district average of 26.1%. This isn't a fluke: the school has posted 94-96% proficiency for three straight years, outperforming Putnam County Middle School (94.4%) and matching Henderson Middle School (98%). However, this success is concentrated in advanced coursework—grade-level math proficiency lags the state by 10-15 points, with only 26.1% of 6th graders, 32.2% of 7th graders, and 42.4% of 8th graders meeting grade-level standards. Science remains a challenge too, with just 15.1% of 8th graders proficient versus the state's 29.7%, though this is a major improvement from 4.8% three years ago.

Beyond test scores, the school is trending upward. Its state ranking has climbed from the 31st to the 44th percentile over four years, and chronic absenteeism has dropped from 22.7% to 17.0%—now essentially at the state average. Social Studies proficiency has also improved to 40.1%, matching the state average. The school spends $13,415 per student with a favorable 13.2:1 student-teacher ratio, and it outperforms Indian Creek Middle School across nearly every metric. While Putnam County Middle and Henderson Middle hold slight edges in overall rankings, Jasper County Middle's consistent Algebra I excellence and improving attendance make it a school worth watching. Note that 91.5% of students now qualify for free or reduced lunch, reflecting significant economic challenges in the community.

Great Admin and teachers Close Quote

Bullying is rampant in this school, Teachers and administration are no help, they turn a blind eye. Test scores are horrid. Classrooms are disorganized. My son went from an "A" average to a D, I removed him from the environment and he is now on principals list again and in advanced courses. Close Quote
