Summary

North Tattnall Elementary School in Collins, GA, serves 831 students in Pre-K through 5th grade and is part of the Tattnall County district. The school has shown steady improvement over the past three years, climbing from the 24th to the 39th percentile in statewide rankings, and now holds a 2-star rating.

One of the school's clear strengths is mathematics. In the most recent school year, proficiency rates improved across all tested grades (3rd, 4th, and 5th), and North Tattnall now exceeds the district average in every grade. For example, 5th-grade math proficiency jumped from 23.8% to 35.1%. The school also shines in 5th-grade science, with a 38.4% proficiency rate—more than double the rate at South Tattnall Elementary (15.7%) and well above the district average (26.9%). Additionally, the school invests heavily in its students, spending $14,878 per pupil—more than nearby Sally Dailey Meadows Elementary ($12,112) and Lyons Upper Elementary ($13,365)—while maintaining a favorable student-teacher ratio of 12.2 to 1.

There are also encouraging trends beyond test scores. Chronic absenteeism has dropped from 23.4% to 19.9% over the past few years, a positive sign even though it remains slightly above the state average. The school also performs particularly well for its Hispanic students, who rank in the 65th percentile statewide. However, there is still room for growth. Toombs Central Elementary, a nearby school in a different district, posts significantly higher math proficiency rates—for instance, 68.5% in 4th-grade math compared to North Tattnall's 38.5%. While North Tattnall's consistent upward trajectory is promising, closing that gap with the region's top performers remains a key opportunity.
