The National Center for Education Statistics reported that statewide, public school enrollment in Georgia in recent years was approximately 36.4% Black, 35.9% white, 18.1% Hispanic, 4% Asian, 4.6% multiracial, 0.2% American Indian or Alaska Native, and 0.1% Pacific Islander.
Chronic absenteeism persists as a challenge in Georgia schools after the pandemic, with 20.7% of students missing at least 10% of school days in 2024, the Georgia Department of Education reported. To address the issue, GaDOE rolled out a statewide initiative featuring a real-time attendance dashboard, a public outreach campaign, and specialized help for districts with the greatest needs to support regular attendance.
In 2025, Georgia legislators approved changes to school attendance policy, making it illegal to expel students solely for absenteeism. The measure also strengthens reporting standards and supports alternate routes to a diploma for students.
By 2026, Georgia posted an average student-teacher ratio of about 14:1, slightly better than the national rate of 15:1.
