Summary

Mansfield Elementary School in Mansfield, GA, serves 384 students in Pre-K through 5th grade and is part of the Newton County School District.

Mansfield Elementary stands out as a high-performing school within a district where most elementary schools are struggling. In the most recent math assessments, Mansfield's proficiency rates were dramatically higher than the district average—for example, 73% of 3rd graders were proficient in math compared to just 30.9% district-wide, and 4th grade math proficiency was 55.8% versus 27.8% district-wide. Nearby schools like South Salem Elementary School, Flint Hill Elementary, and Rocky Plains Elementary School typically post proficiency rates in the single digits to low 20s. Mansfield also has remarkably low chronic absenteeism at 11.4%, compared to the district average of 24.4% and rates above 27% at several nearby schools. The school invests more per student ($18,933) than most peers and maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio of 11.8:1, which likely supports the individualized attention contributing to these strong results.

While Mansfield's overall state ranking dipped from 343rd to 515th this year, this appears driven by a specific 5th grade cohort challenge rather than a school-wide issue—3rd and 4th grade results remained strong. The school has bounced back from similar dips before. Notably, Mansfield's performance is competitive even with the Newton County Theme School at Ficquett, a district showcase school with a more advantaged student population. The school has also maintained strong academics while serving a rapidly changing student body—free/reduced lunch eligibility jumped from 38.4% to 76.8% over three years, yet attendance has actually improved. For parents, Mansfield represents a school that is clearly outperforming its district context, with strong teaching resources and engaged families, though the 5th grade dip is worth monitoring.
