Summary:
The 31015 zip code area of Georgia is home to 6 schools, including 3 elementary schools, 1 middle school, 2 high schools, and 0 alternative schools. These schools serve a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, with all of the elementary and middle schools having 100% free/reduced lunch rates.
While the smaller student-teacher ratios at the elementary and middle school levels could be a strength, providing more individualized attention, this does not seem to be translating into stronger academic outcomes. Across all grade levels and subjects, the proficiency rates at the Crisp County High School and other Crisp County schools are significantly lower than the state averages. For example, in 8th grade math, Crisp County Middle School had a 20.3% proficiency rate compared to the state average of 47%. The district's 4-year graduation rate of 85.4% is also below the state average.
One bright spot is the Crisp RYDC school, operated by the Department of Juvenile Justice, which has an extremely low student-teacher ratio of 3.0, suggesting a very personalized learning environment. However, this school also faces the unique challenges of serving students in the juvenile justice system. Overall, the data paints a picture of a Crisp County school district struggling to support its high-need student populations and achieve strong academic results, indicating a need for targeted interventions and additional resources.
