Summary

Randolph Clay High School is a public high school in Cuthbert, Georgia, serving 237 students in grades 9-12. The school is part of the Randolph County School District, which is ranked 168 out of 206 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Randolph Clay High School has consistently ranked in the bottom 10-15% of Georgia high schools over the past 10 years, with a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger indicating poor overall performance. The school's academic performance, as measured by the Georgia Milestones Assessments, is significantly below the state average across all subject areas. For example, in 2024-2025, the school's proficiency rates ranged from just 2.3% in United States History to 31.3% in Algebra I, compared to the state averages of 38.6% and 44.9%, respectively. The school's graduation rates have been mixed, ranging from 75.4% to 93.6% over the past 5 years, with the overall trend being concerning.

Interestingly, Randolph Clay High School's performance is generally lower than the two nearby high schools, Quitman County High School and Calhoun County High School, which are also located in rural, economically disadvantaged areas. While these schools have slightly higher rankings and academic performance, they too struggle to meet state averages. Despite the increased funding and a relatively low student-teacher ratio at Randolph Clay High School, these factors alone have not been sufficient to drive meaningful improvements in student outcomes.
