Summary

Wynnton Elementary School is a public elementary school in Columbus, Georgia, serving 359 students from kindergarten to 5th grade. The school is part of the Muscogee County School District, which is ranked 155 out of 206 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Wynnton Elementary consistently underperforms compared to the Muscogee County and Georgia state averages on the Milestones Assessment. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 19.3% of 3rd-grade students at Wynnton were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 24.6% in the district and 34.9% statewide. The school has a low statewide ranking, placing in the bottom half of Georgia elementary schools, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Additionally, 100% of Wynnton's students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch, significantly higher than the nearby Clubview Elementary School, which had a 47.84% free and reduced lunch rate.

Despite the relatively high per-student spending of $11,144 at Wynnton Elementary, the data suggests that the resources are not translating into improved academic outcomes. This contrasts with the performance of some nearby schools, such as Clubview Elementary and Hannan Elementary, which consistently outperform Wynnton in test scores and statewide rankings. The challenges faced by Wynnton Elementary may be indicative of broader systemic issues within the Muscogee County School District that need to be addressed.

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
