Warren County Middle School

Warren County Middle School is a public middle school located in Warrenton, Georgia, serving grades 6-8 with a total enrollment of 148 students. The school is part of the Warren County School District, which is ranked 190 out of 206 districts in Georgia and has a 0-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Despite the school's relatively small class sizes and high spending per student, Warren County Middle School consistently underperforms the state average on the Georgia Milestones Assessments across all grade levels and subject areas. For example, in the 2024-2025 school year, the percentage of students proficient or better in English Language Arts ranged from 11.5% to 31%, compared to the state average of 39.8% to 41.3%. Similarly, in Mathematics, the school's proficiency rates ranged from 3.7% to 28.6%, while the state average was 37.3% to 47%. This poor academic performance has resulted in the school ranking in the bottom 35-40% of middle schools in Georgia, with its ranking ranging from 360 out of 542 schools in 2020-2021 to 561 out of 588 schools in 2023-2024.

Interestingly, the nearby Hancock Central Middle School and Thomson-McDuffie Middle School also perform poorly compared to the state average, but they still outperform Warren County Middle School on most academic measures. This suggests that the challenges faced by Warren County Middle School may be more pronounced than those of its neighbors. Despite the high spending per student and small class sizes, the school has not shown significant improvement in its academic performance over the past several years, indicating the need for a more comprehensive approach to address the underlying issues and help the school achieve better results.
