Cobb Leads! Cobb Students Outpace State, Large Metro Peers on Georgia Milestones

The most recent release of Georgia Milestones scores marked the first time that many students across the state were assessed following the COVID-19 pandemic. Even with the challenges of the past few years, students across the Cobb County School District outperformed their state and large metro Atlanta peers. The results show: 

  • Cobb students scored higher than Georgia students in all subjects and in the percentage of students reading on grade level
  • Among the CCSD’s large metro Atlanta peers, and across all subject areas, Cobb has the highest mean score on the Milestones
  • Among the CCSD’s large metro Atlanta peers, Cobb has the highest % of students reading at or above grade level
  • Among the CCSD’s large metro Atlanta peers, and across all subject areas, Cobb has the highest % of learners considered “developing and above” (levels 2-4). 
  • Among the CCSD’s large metro Atlanta peers, and across all EOC subject areas, Cobb has the highest % of learners considered “proficient and above” (levels 3-4)

“In Cobb, student success is our continuous One Goal. Our students are supported by the best Team who, data continues to show, make Cobb the best place to teach, lead, and learn. I could not be more proud of our teachers going above and beyond for our students," said Superintendent Chris Ragsdale.
