45^th

of 578 Georgia Middle Schools

Better than 92% of Georgia middle schools

Summary

Malcom Bridge Middle School in Bogart, GA, serves 548 students in grades 6-8 within the highly ranked Oconee County School District—a district rated in the top 1% of Georgia districts. The school consistently ranks among the top 5% of Georgia middle schools and currently holds a 5-star rating, with a favorable student-teacher ratio of 13.7:1 and a relatively low percentage of students (17.15%) qualifying for free or reduced lunch.

The most striking differentiator is Malcom Bridge's perfect 100% proficiency rate on the Algebra I End of Course assessment—a feat achieved consistently across all four years of available data. This dramatically exceeds the district average (86.6%) and more than doubles the state average (48.1%). Notably, this performance is matched by both other Oconee County middle schools (Dove Creek Middle School and Oconee County Middle School), suggesting a coordinated district strategy for advanced math placement. The school also demonstrates remarkable consistency in grade-level mathematics, with proficiency rates of 76%, 75.5%, and 78.4% for grades 6, 7, and 8 respectively—all well above state averages. Chronic absenteeism is exceptionally low at just 5.0%, compared to the state average of 17.7%, and dramatically better than nearby schools like Carver Middle School (28.3%) and Hilsman Middle School (31.8%).

While Malcom Bridge's current state ranking of 45th (92nd percentile) is its lowest in recent years, this appears to reflect increased competition rather than declining performance—actual test scores remain strong and, in some cases, improved. The school serves its student populations exceptionally well, with female students ranking in the 94th percentile statewide and even the Special Education subgroup ranking in the 72nd percentile. Spending efficiency is notable: at $13,618 per student, the school achieves far better outcomes than nearby Clarke County schools that spend significantly more ($19,221-$20,802 per student) yet post math proficiency rates roughly half of Malcom Bridge's. The contrast with Burney-Harris-Lyons Middle School, just 5.7 miles away, highlights a stark educational divide in the region—though Malcom Bridge's strong subgroup performance suggests its success comes from both demographics and effective instructional practices that benefit all students.

As the father of two boys enrolled at MBMS, one of whom is in Special Education, I must say that our experience here has been fabulous. The level of communication is outstanding, the obvious care and concern that the teachers, faculty, and staff have for their students is palpable. Close Quote
