Georgetown Elementary School

Georgetown Elementary sits in the southern part of Columbus, a river city with deep military ties to Fort Moore and a tight-knit community feel that runs through its neighborhoods. The school's academics are a real challenge in all the right ways — math scores in particular place it near the very bottom of Georgia schools, and English and Science follow a similar pattern, so families looking for strong foundational academics may want to look carefully at the fit. That said, for families already rooted in the Georgetown area of Columbus, the school is part of a community where neighbors tend to know each other, and the city itself offers affordable living, a revitalized Uptown district, and plenty of outdoor access along the Chattahoochee River.
