Summary

Allgood Elementary School in Dallas, GA, serves about 811 students in grades PK-5 as part of the Paulding County School District, where roughly 72% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Allgood’s state ranking has declined over the past decade, now placing it in the bottom quartile of Georgia elementary schools. In the most recent testing cycle, math proficiency rates were significantly below district and state averages—for example, only 25.9% of 4th graders met math standards, compared to 49.5% across the district. This gap is consistent across grade levels, with 3rd grade math at 35.8% (vs. 50.3% district) and 5th grade math at 29.7% (vs. 42.9% district). Nearby schools show stronger results: Nebo Elementary (2.6 miles away) posts 49.2% proficiency in 3rd grade math, and Sam D. Panter Elementary reaches 47.3% in the same subject. However, there is a positive signal: 3rd grade math improved from 25% to 35.8% in one year, suggesting recent interventions may be helping younger students. Science performance is also a relative strength, with 5th grade science (35.1%) nearly matching the district average (36.8%).

Chronic absenteeism stands at 19.1%, higher than the district (16.8%) and state (17.7%) averages, though it has improved from nearly 24% in prior years. The school maintains a favorable student-teacher ratio of 12.8:1, but spends about $15,016 per student—less than several nearby schools like Lillian C. Poole Elementary ($17,386) and New Georgia Elementary ($17,638). While Allgood serves a higher-poverty population than most neighbors, its attendance rate is not the highest in the area—Dallas Elementary exceeds it at 21.9%. The data suggests that targeted support in math, combined with continued efforts to reduce absenteeism, could help address the school’s most pressing challenges.
