Summary

Resurgence Hall Middle Academy is a state specialty school in Atlanta, GA, serving 209 students in grades 5-8, and it operates as its own district, State Specialty Schools II- Resurgence Hall Middle Academy, which ranks in the 88th percentile statewide.

This school stands out for its exceptional math performance. In 8th grade, 82.7% of students are proficient in math, nearly double the state average of 46.3% and far ahead of nearby KIPP South Fulton Academy School (64.2%). Science scores are also strong, with 5th graders hitting 73.8% proficiency versus 44.2% statewide. The school also keeps students in class: chronic absenteeism is just 6.9%, compared to 35-49% at many neighboring middle schools like Jean Childs Young Middle School and Judson Price Middle School. This strong attendance likely underpins the academic success. The school achieves these results while spending about $13,202 per student—roughly half to a third of what nearby schools like Herman J. Russell West End Academy ($35,178) or Crawford Long Middle School ($28,197) spend.

While the school’s statewide rank slipped from 37th to 138th this year, it still earns a 4-star rating and remains in the top quarter of Georgia middle schools. The one clear challenge is 8th grade social studies, where only 5.7% of students are proficient versus 40.2% statewide—a stark contrast to its other subjects. Nearby Kipp Strive Charter School (49.5%) and KIPP South Fulton (59%) perform much better in this area, suggesting a targeted opportunity for improvement. Overall, Resurgence Hall is a high-performing, cost-effective option that delivers strong results for its students, especially in math and science.
