Summary

Glenn Hills Middle School is a public middle school in Augusta, Georgia, serving 744 students in grades 6-8. The school is part of the Richmond County School District, which is ranked 177 out of 206 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Glenn Hills Middle School has consistently ranked in the bottom 10% of middle schools in Georgia over the past 10 years, with a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger, indicating very poor academic performance. The school's proficiency rates on the Georgia Milestones assessments are significantly lower than the Richmond County and state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, only 3.8% of Glenn Hills students were proficient or better in Algebra I, compared to 14.5% in Richmond County and 44.9% statewide. The school also has an extremely high percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 97.9% to 100% over the past few years.

Despite the relatively high spending per student at Glenn Hills Middle School, ranging from $8,626 to $9,565 over the past few years, the school's academic performance remains poor. This suggests that simply increasing funding may not be enough to improve student outcomes, and that other factors, such as the quality of instruction, school leadership, and support services, may play a more significant role in driving academic success. The nearby W.S. Hornsby Middle School, Pine Hill Middle School, and Langford Middle School also have relatively low academic performance, but still outperform Glenn Hills Middle School, indicating that there may be unique challenges or factors contributing to the particularly poor performance at Glenn Hills.
