Wilkinson Gardens Elementary School

Wilkinson Gardens Elementary sits in Augusta's southside, a part of the city that's working hard to grow and support its families, but this school faces some significant academic challenges that families should be aware of when making enrollment decisions. With test scores ranking near the bottom of Georgia's elementary schools across English, math, and science, it may be worth exploring additional tutoring resources or supplemental learning options if you're in this area. Families who do enroll here will find a school that serves a tight-knit community, and Augusta itself offers affordable living, a rich history, and proximity to the famous Masters golf tournament — though for parents prioritizing academic outcomes, it's worth having an open conversation with the school about support programs and what resources are available to help students thrive.
