Summary:
The city of Zebulon, Georgia is home to 5 schools serving students from elementary through high school, including 2 elementary schools, 1 middle school, and 2 high schools. The Pike County school district as a whole is performing around the state average, with a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.
Within the district, there is a clear performance gap between the elementary/middle schools and the high schools. Pike County Elementary School and Pike County Middle School stand out as the top performers, consistently ranking in the top 40% of Georgia schools in their respective categories. These schools have higher test scores, particularly in math and science, as well as lower student-teacher ratios compared to the district's high schools.
In contrast, Zebulon High School appears to be the weakest performer, ranking in the bottom 10% of Georgia high schools. Zebulon High School lags behind in test scores, has a higher free/reduced lunch rate, and spends less per student than the other high school, Pike County High School. These factors suggest that resource allocation and socioeconomic factors may be contributing to the performance gap between the district's schools.
