Schools in Clarke County

About schools in Clarke County

Eighteen public schools, one district — Clarke County keeps things centralized, with the Clarke County School District serving Athens and the smaller communities of Bogart and Winterville. That consolidation means families aren't navigating competing systems, but it also means the district's challenges are shared across the board: no schools here rank in Georgia's top quartile. Timothy Elementary leads the county at the 72nd percentile statewide, followed by Barrow Elementary at the 63rd. For families prioritizing strong English and math scores, Clarke County's schools warrant a close look at individual performance data before committing.
