Summary

Omega Elementary School serves approximately 314 students in grades PK-5 in the small community of Omega, Georgia, as part of Tift County Schools. The school has earned a 3-star rating in eight of the last ten years and currently ranks in the 54th percentile statewide, placing it solidly in the middle of Georgia elementary schools.

One of the school's standout strengths is third-grade math, where 57.9% of students scored proficient or above in 2025-2026—about 10 points higher than the state average. This pattern has been consistent, with third graders outperforming district and state levels in recent years. However, math proficiency drops noticeably in upper grades: only 43.6% of fourth graders and 40.0% of fifth graders reached proficiency, a 14-18 point decline from third grade. Fifth-grade science has also been a persistent challenge, with just 36.7% proficient in 2025-2026, below the district (39.6%) and state (44.2%) averages. Nearby schools like Len Lastinger Elementary (55.4%) and J.T. Reddick Elementary (56.1%) have achieved much stronger science outcomes, highlighting an area for potential growth.

On a positive note, chronic absenteeism has improved significantly, dropping from 24% to 19.7% in 2025-2026—now below the district average of 24.0%. The school also invests heavily in its students, spending $16,761 per pupil with a favorable 12.5:1 student-teacher ratio, the highest spending among Tift County elementary schools. Hispanic students at Omega perform notably well, ranking in the 60th percentile statewide. While the school's overall ranking has improved from the 43rd to 54th percentile over the past few years, the gap between strong third-grade results and weaker upper-grade performance suggests an opportunity to build on early successes. With continued focus on upper-grade math and science, Omega has the potential to climb into the upper tier of Georgia schools.
