Summary

Brewer Elementary School is a public elementary school in Columbus, Georgia, serving 498 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Muscogee County School District, which is ranked 155 out of 203 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Brewer Elementary School has consistently ranked among the lowest-performing elementary schools in Georgia, with a statewide ranking between 1068 and 1248 out of 1231 to 1248 schools over the past 10 years. The school has received a 0 or 1 out of 5 stars rating from SchoolDigger during this time period, indicating very poor academic performance. For example, in the 2023-2024 school year, only 4.9% of 3rd graders, 2.6% of 4th graders, and 6.4% of 5th graders were proficient or better in English Language Arts, compared to 29.1%, 26.4%, and 37.3% for the district, respectively. The school's performance in mathematics is even worse, with 0% of 3rd graders, 5.1% of 4th graders, and 3.9% of 5th graders proficient or better, compared to 27.6%, 32.3%, and 26.3% for the district.

When comparing Brewer Elementary School to nearby schools within the same district, it becomes clear that the school is an outlier in terms of academic performance. For instance, Clubview Elementary School, located just 2.53 miles away, consistently outperforms Brewer Elementary across all grade levels and subject areas, with significantly higher proficiency rates. The high percentage of economically disadvantaged students at Brewer Elementary School, ranging from 96.44% to 96.77% over the past few years, may be a significant factor contributing to the school's poor academic performance. Additionally, the school's location in a high-poverty area of Columbus could be exacerbating the challenges faced by students and teachers.
