Summary

Wynnton Elementary School in Columbus, GA, serves 332 students in grades K-5 within the Muscogee County School District, where 100% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch. The school currently holds a 1-star rating and ranks in the 15th percentile statewide, a decline from the 39th percentile in 2018-2019.

Academically, math proficiency rates are a concern, with 4th grade at 21.4% and 5th grade at 23.6% in the most recent testing year—both below district and state averages. However, there are notable bright spots. In 5th grade science, proficiency reached 32.7%, and in the prior year, 5th grade ELA proficiency (46.2%) actually surpassed both the district (31.9%) and state (43%) averages. This suggests upper-grade literacy and science instruction may be strengths, even as early-grade math lags. Compared to nearby schools, Wynnton outperforms Davis Elementary, Fox Elementary, and Martin Luther King- Junior Elementary School (all in the 1st percentile), but trails Clubview Elementary (59th percentile) and Downtown Elementary Magnet Academy (64th percentile), which are within two miles.

One of the most encouraging trends is chronic absenteeism, which dropped dramatically from 25.6% in 2023-2024 to 13.2% in 2024-2025—now below the district average (19.5%) and essentially at the state average (17.7%). This improvement stands out compared to Fox Elementary (29.5%) and Brewer Elementary (32.8%). The school also invests $17,237 per student—higher than Clubview Elementary ($14,914)—and maintains a favorable 11.6:1 student-teacher ratio. While overall rankings remain low, the combination of improving attendance, strong 5th grade performance in ELA and science, and smaller class sizes offers building blocks for future progress.

Reading program is atrocious. There is a one size fits all mentality. There are many children in the fourth and fifth grades who cannot read, that are given the same work as children who read on a high school level, expecting the same result. Common Core is not being followed according to state guidelines. Administration unreceptive. Close Quote
