Summary

Wilkinson County High School is a small, rural high school in Mc Intyre, GA, serving 328 students in grades 9 through 12 within the Wilkinson County district.

This school presents a fascinating mix of strengths and challenges. The most impressive highlight is its graduation rate: 94.9% for the 2024-2025 school year, well above the state average of 87.2%. This success is paired with a remarkable turnaround in attendance—the chronic absenteeism rate has dropped from 11.1% in 2022-2023 to 0.0% in the most recent school year, compared to a 17.7% state average. The school also invests heavily in its students, spending $15,708 per pupil and maintaining a favorable student-teacher ratio of 11.9:1. However, academic proficiency on state tests tells a different story. In the latest results, only 24.1% of students were proficient in Algebra I (state: 48.1%), 37.0% in Biology (state: 47.2%), and 18.2% in U.S. History (state: 38.5%). This creates a clear "graduation vs. proficiency" paradox—students are showing up and earning diplomas, but many are not demonstrating grade-level mastery in core subjects.

Compared to nearby schools, Wilkinson County High stands out in several ways. It outperforms Baldwin High School in graduation rate (94.9% vs. 81.9%) and has a dramatically lower chronic absenteeism rate (0.0% vs. 18.9%), though Baldwin edges it out on some test scores. Against Twiggs County High School, Wilkinson is a clear winner across the board—higher graduation rate, far lower absenteeism (0.0% vs. 35.8%), and better proficiency in Algebra I and U.S. History. The school's recent improvement in attendance and state ranking suggests positive momentum, but the gap between its graduation success and academic proficiency remains the key area for parents to watch. Note that English Language Arts scores are not yet available for this release; they will be published in December.
