Georgia’s public schools enrolled over 1.7 million students, according to the Georgia Department of Education’s Fiscal Year 2026-1 report. Elementary grades accounted for 787,206 students (45.9%), followed by 388,733 middle school students (22.7%) and 539,092 high school students (31.4%).
The Georgia Department of Education notes that 20.7% of students missed at least 10% of school days in 2024, highlighting ongoing challenges with chronic absenteeism after the pandemic. In response, GaDOE started a statewide campaign that features a real-time attendance dashboard, a public outreach initiative, and more support for districts with higher needs to improve daily attendance rates.
In 2025, Georgia legislators approved updates to attendance laws prohibiting expulsion solely for truancy. The law also implements new reporting guidelines and coordinates with pathways for students to earn diplomas through alternative arrangements.
By 2026, the average student-to-teacher ratio in Georgia was about 14:1, outperforming the national ratio of 15:1.
