Dade Middle School was the only school in the county during the 2022-23 school year.
Within Dade County schools, the highest student count was found in ninth grade, with the smallest class sizes seen in eighth grade.
Statewide, Dade County ranked 112th in enrollment numbers, with a total of 3,879 students enrolled in the 2022-23 school year. It was ranked 114th the year before.
While enrollment in Georgia inches closer to pre-pandemic levels, chronic absenteeism remains a serious challenge. In 2023, a significant portion of students (23%) missed 10% or more of their classes. Although this is slightly better than the peak of 25% in 2022, it's still nearly double the pre-pandemic rate of 13% recorded in 2019.
