News

CLEVELAND, Ga. — White County schools rank among the best in the state. They have grown accustomed to winning awards. Another one came their way this week when the Georgia Department of Education released its most recent findings in the 2015 School Climate Star Ratings which ranks the quality and character of school life, or the “culture” of a school.

School climate is assessed in a number of ways – parent, student and teacher surveys, attendance levels of both students and staff and student discipline, among other factors.

With five stars the highest rating, Mossy Creek and Jack P. Nix achieved five stars and all other All White County schools achieved a four.

Dr. Jeff Wilson, Superintendent of the White County Charter School System said, “I’m very proud of our students, teachers, administrators and their staff. We have great people who do great things for our students here in White County.”

Jennifer King is the principal at Mossy Creek and Stacie Ward is principal at Jack P. Nix.

“Both are young and enthusiastic with innovative new ideas,” Wilson said. “They have been in the system less than five years and they have done great thing.”
