Summary:

The 31907 zip code area of Columbus, Georgia is home to 14 schools, including 10 elementary schools, 3 middle schools, and 1 high school. These schools serve predominantly low-income student populations, as evidenced by the extremely high free/reduced lunch rates across the district.

While a few schools, such as Reese Road Leadership Academy and East Columbus Magnet Academy, stand out with relatively strong performance, the majority of schools in the area struggle to meet district and state averages on standardized tests. Kendrick High School, the lone high school in the data set, is the lowest-performing school, with very low test scores and a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger.

The data highlights significant achievement gaps between the schools in this zip code and the broader Muscogee County district, as well as the state of Georgia. Targeted interventions and support will likely be needed to improve student outcomes and close these gaps in the 31907 area.
