Summary:
The 31201 zip code area of Macon, Georgia is home to two elementary schools: Alexander II Magnet School and Williams Elementary School. While both schools serve students in the same community, their academic performance and overall quality differ significantly.
Alexander II Magnet School stands out as the higher-performing school, consistently ranking in the top 15-20% of Bibb County elementary schools over the past three years. The school's test scores significantly outpace the district and state averages, and it boasts a more diverse student population compared to the predominantly African American student body at Williams Elementary School.
In contrast, Williams Elementary School is a lower-performing school, ranking in the bottom 1-2% of Georgia elementary schools over the past three years. The school's test scores lag significantly behind the district and state averages, despite spending more per student than Alexander II Magnet School. This stark performance gap between the two schools in the same zip code area raises questions about the underlying factors contributing to the differences in academic outcomes.
