Source: Georgia Milestones school aggregates published by the Governor's Office of Student Achievement. “Proficient or Distinguished” combines the top two of Georgia's four achievement levels. Cells marked “—” were withheld by the state because the group was too small to report without identifying individual students. School-level groups are small by nature, so figures move more from year to year than a district's do — read them alongside the district trend rather than on their own. Back to Effingham County.
