Summary:
The 30040 zip code area of Forsyth County, Georgia is home to 12 schools, including 6 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 3 high schools, all part of the highly-ranked Forsyth County school district. The data reveals a stark contrast in academic performance between the top-performing schools, such as Alliance Academy for Innovation and the middle schools Hendricks and Vickery Creek, and the lower-performing schools, like Cumming Elementary.
The top-ranked schools boast impressive metrics, such as a 100% four-year graduation rate at Alliance Academy for Innovation, and exceptional proficiency rates on the Milestones assessments, significantly outperforming the county and state averages. In contrast, some schools struggle, with proficiency rates well below the county and state levels. This suggests significant disparities in educational opportunities and resources within the district.
The data also indicates a potential correlation between higher free/reduced lunch rates and lower academic performance, with schools serving more economically disadvantaged populations tending to have lower proficiency rates. Additionally, the strong performance of the middle schools, particularly in Algebra I, highlights the importance of a solid foundation in the middle grades for high school success.
