Summary

Freeman Elementary School in Warrenton, GA, serves 315 students in Pre-K through 5th grade and is part of the Warren County School District, a rural district where 100% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch.

Freeman stands out for its strong investment in students: it spends $16,897 per pupil and maintains a low student-teacher ratio of 9.6 to 1, the lowest among nearby schools. However, academic proficiency in Math and Science remains well below state averages. For example, in the most recent testing year, only 11.9% of 3rd graders were proficient in Math versus 48.3% statewide, and 5th-grade Science proficiency was 11.1% compared to 44.2% statewide. There is a notable bright spot: 4th-grade Math proficiency reached 50% in the prior year, above the state average, showing the school can produce strong results. Yet performance is inconsistent across grades, and the school’s state ranking has swung from the 4th percentile to the 20th percentile and back to the 7th percentile in recent years.

A major concern is chronic absenteeism, which has climbed steadily from 18.9% in 2021-2022 to 31.1% in the latest year—nearly double the state average of 17.7%. This means many students are missing significant instructional time, which likely impacts test scores. Compared to neighbors, Freeman outperforms Lewis Elementary School in Hancock County in most subjects, but lags behind Dearing Elementary School and Glascock County Elementary School, which spend less per student yet achieve higher proficiency rates. This suggests that while resources are strong, addressing attendance and consistency across grade levels may be the most impactful next steps for improving outcomes.
