According to the data, Carver Road Middle School served 426 students total during 2024-25. Asian students represented 1% of the student population, marking the smallest ethnic group at the school.

Georgia public schools enrolled more than 1.7 million students, according to the Department of Education’s Fiscal Year 2026-1 report. The highest enrollment was in elementary grades with 787,206 students (45.9%), followed by middle school at 388,733 (22.7%), and high school at 539,092 (31.4%).

Chronic absenteeism remains a challenge in Georgia schools after the pandemic, with 20.7% of students missing 10% or more of school days in 2024, according to the Department of Education. In response, GaDOE began a statewide effort that includes a real-time attendance dashboard, public awareness outreach, and targeted support for high-need districts to encourage daily attendance.

In 2025, Georgia lawmakers updated school attendance laws to prohibit expulsion solely for absenteeism. The legislation introduced new reporting rules and aligns with alternative programs for students earning diplomas.

By 2026, Georgia reported an average student-to-teacher ratio of roughly 14:1, lower than the national average of 15:1.
