Summary

General Ray Davis Middle School in Stockbridge, GA, serves 874 students in grades 6–8 and is part of the Rockdale County School District, which holds a 1-star district rating.

The school's standout strength is its advanced math program. In 2025–2026, 84% of students taking the Algebra I End-of-Course exam scored proficient or above—nearly double the state average (48.1%) and more than triple the district average (26.2%). This pattern has been consistent, with proficiency rates of 72.1% and 97.2% in the prior two years. Among nearby schools, only Union Grove Middle (93.4%) and Veterans Memorial Middle School (96.3%) posted higher rates. The school also excels in 8th-grade math (46.2% proficient, matching the state average and far exceeding the district's 32.7%) and High School Physical Science (69.7% proficient, above the state's 60.9%). Within Rockdale County, General Ray Davis is the top-performing middle school, outpacing Conyers Middle School, Memorial Middle School, and Edwards Middle School in nearly every subject tested.

Another bright spot is attendance. The school's chronic absenteeism rate is 17.5%, well below the district's 28.6% and essentially matching the state average (17.7%)—a gap the school has maintained for five consecutive years, even as 72.2% of its students qualify for free or reduced-price lunch. However, grade-level math in 6th and 7th grades (23.1% and 25.4% proficient, respectively) and 8th-grade science (21.6%) and social studies (30.6%) lag state averages by 10–17 percentage points. The school's overall state ranking has declined from 127th (4 stars) in 2018–2019 to 342nd (2 stars) in 2025–2026, despite strong test scores in advanced subjects, suggesting the ranking shift may reflect factors beyond raw academic performance. With a student-to-teacher ratio of 14:1 and per-pupil spending of $14,390, the school achieves its results with resources typical of its district.

Both of my children have attended GRDMS. They have been well prepared for high school and beyond. Their teachers and the administration have the children's interests in mind. Great school! Close Quote
