Summary

Tutt Middle School in Augusta, GA, serves 617 students in grades 6-8 as part of the Richmond County School District, where 100% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Tutt Middle School faces significant academic challenges, ranking in the bottom 5% of Georgia middle schools. The most pressing concern is chronic absenteeism—37.2% of students miss substantial school time, more than double the state average of 17.7%. This pattern has persisted for five years, though it's slightly better than nearby W.S. Hornsby Middle School (50.3%) and Murphey Middle School (45.9%). Science proficiency is critically low at 1.3% for 8th graders, compared to the state average of 29.7%. Math proficiency in grades 6-8 ranges from 6.1% to 12.6%, far below the 81.6% proficiency seen at Riverside Middle School in neighboring Columbia County. The contrast between the two districts is stark—Tutt spends $14,901 per student (more than any Columbia County school in the comparison), yet outcomes remain dramatically lower, suggesting funding alone doesn't solve the achievement gap.

There is one notable bright spot: Algebra I End of Course performance. In 2024-2025, 39.1% of Tutt students scored proficient—nearly triple the district average of 14.5% and far exceeding every other Richmond County middle school. While this dropped to 22.9% in 2025-2026, it still beats the district average of 19.4%. This suggests the school may have an effective advanced math program for select students. However, subgroup data shows challenges are systemic—students across all demographics rank in the bottom 3% statewide. For parents, the key takeaway is that Tutt offers targeted strength in Algebra I but faces deep, interconnected hurdles around attendance and core subject proficiency that require comprehensive support.
