Summary

T.G. Scott Elementary School is a public elementary school in Forsyth, Georgia, serving 825 students in grades PK-5 and part of the Monroe County School District, which is ranked 29th out of 206 districts in the state.

T.G. Scott Elementary consistently outperforms the Monroe County and Georgia state averages in Milestones Assessment proficiency rates across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's 4th-grade math proficiency rate was 71.3%, compared to 58.6% for Monroe County and 49% for the state.
