Summary:
The 30458 zip code area is home to two middle schools - William James Middle School and Langston Chapel Middle School. While both serve students in grades 6-8, the data reveals notable differences in their academic performance and school characteristics.
William James Middle School appears to be the higher-performing of the two, ranking 287 out of 584 Georgia middle schools statewide. It outperforms Langston Chapel Middle School in most subject areas, with a higher percentage of students scoring proficient or better on standardized tests. However, both schools lag behind the Bulloch County and Georgia state averages in several subject areas.
Of particular concern is the significantly lower performance of Langston Chapel Middle School, especially in English Language Arts and Science. This school also has a much higher percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch, suggesting it serves a more economically disadvantaged community. While the student-teacher ratios are similar between the two schools, other factors, such as teacher effectiveness and school leadership, may play a role in the performance gap.
