Summary

South Tattnall Middle School in Glennville, GA, serves approximately 365 students in grades 6-8 as part of the Tattnall County School District. The school currently holds a 2-star rating, ranking in the middle of the pack statewide, though it was once a consistently strong performer with 4-star ratings between 2015 and 2018.

The school's standout strength is its advanced mathematics pathway. In 2023-2024, 100% of students taking the Algebra I End of Course exam scored proficient or better—far exceeding the district average of 36.3% and state average of 44%. Seventh-grade math is also a bright spot, with 45% of students scoring proficient in 2025-2026, beating both district and state averages. The school has also made meaningful progress reducing chronic absenteeism, dropping from 28% to 19.5% over two years, and it shows relative strength in serving special education students, ranking in the 56th percentile statewide for that subgroup. However, 8th grade social studies (20.1% proficient) and science (23.7% proficient) trail state averages significantly.

Compared to nearby schools, South Tattnall outperforms Claxton Middle School in Evans County, where just 5% of 6th graders scored proficient in math versus South Tattnall's 40.4%—and it does so while spending less per student. Against Long County Middle School, South Tattnall wins in 6th and 7th grade math but trails in 8th grade science and social studies. Its sister school, North Tattnall Middle School, has been improving and now ranks nearly identically, though South Tattnall excels in 7th grade math while North Tattnall leads in 6th grade math. With a favorable 12.5:1 student-teacher ratio and 100% of students qualifying for free or reduced lunch, South Tattnall offers pockets of excellence that parents should weigh against its overall middling performance.
