High Schools in Ware County


Summary:

Ware County, Georgia is home to a single high school, Ware County High School, which serves students in grades 9-12. The school's performance has fluctuated in recent years, with its statewide ranking ranging from 102 to 150 out of 458 Georgia high schools and its SchoolDigger rating varying between 3 and 4 stars.

Ware County High School's academic performance is a mixed bag, with proficiency rates on the Georgia Milestones assessments exceeding the state average in some subjects, such as Algebra I and Biology, but falling short in others, like American Literature and Composition. The school's 4-year graduation rate for the 2021-2022 school year was 86.4%, which is a positive indicator. However, the school serves a predominantly economically disadvantaged student population, with 86.34% of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch in the 2022-2023 school year.

Despite the challenges faced by Ware County High School, the school's relatively small size, with 1,589 students, may allow for more personalized attention and support for its students. The school's per-student spending for the 2018-2019 school year was $10,360. Overall, Ware County appears to have room for improvement in its high school education, but the data suggests the district is working to address the needs of its students.
