Summary

New Georgia Elementary School is a public elementary school in Villa Rica, Georgia, serving 344 students in grades PK-5. The school is part of the Paulding County School District, which is ranked 91 out of 206 districts in the state.

Academically, New Georgia Elementary has had mixed results compared to the district and state averages. While the school's 4th-grade English Language Arts (ELA) proficiency rate was higher than the Paulding County and Georgia averages, its 3rd-grade ELA and 5th-grade performance in ELA, math, and science were lower. The school's ranking has fluctuated over the years, ranging from a 4-star rating in 2018-2019 to a 3-star rating in the most recent year. The school's higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 48.71% to 55.52%, may be a contributing factor to its academic challenges.

Compared to nearby schools, Winston Elementary School and Union Elementary School have generally outperformed New Georgia Elementary, particularly in math and science. However, Hal Hutchens Elementary and Allgood Elementary, both in the Paulding County district, have lower academic performance compared to New Georgia Elementary. The school's efforts to increase resources and support, such as higher per-student spending and a lower student-teacher ratio, may help address these challenges and improve student outcomes over time.
