Federally Identified Schools

Every school in our District is held accountable through many different measures such as graduation levels, standardized test scores, student and parent surveys, etc. We expect all schools to continuously improve.  Schools receive additional supports if outcomes reflect that they are not meeting expectations.

Federally Identified Schools:  In December, the state publishes a list of schools that would benefit from comprehensive or targeted support (see below). Fulton County Schools works in collaboration with GADOE to improve student outcomes. Such schools receive more funding, personnel, leadership guidance and training.  They are held to higher levels of accountability and monitoring.

Promise Act Schools: Additionally, the Governor's Office of Student Achievement calculates a list of schools performing in the lowest 25% of all public schools (see below).   Eligible families in these schools may qualify for the Georgia Promise Scholarship Program.  Program regulations, eligibility requirements and additional information can be found on mygeorgiapromise.org.
