District-Level NCES Analysis
Bryan County operates 10 public schools serving 10,221 students, placing it among the smaller districts in Georgia. The school portfolio breaks down into 4 combined, 2 high, 2 middle, 2 elementary schools, a compact enough portfolio that families can compare every campus directly before they move, rent, or enrol. These enrollment and school figures come from the NCES Common Core of Data (CCD) 2024-25 release, and the district is based in Bryan County.
Per-pupil expenditure runs $10,800 according to the NCES F-33 School District Finance Survey, among the bottom 22 of 219 Georgia districts by per-pupil spending. See how Georgia compares in our national per-pupil spending analysis. The funding mix is 36.9% local, 49.5% state, and 13.6% federal, a balanced mix across local, state, and federal sources, spreading budget risk across funding cycles rather than concentrating it in one. The district's equity score is 21/100, ranked #205 of 216 in Georgia against a state average of 50, notably less even than the typical district in the state for how evenly funding reaches its schools.
Academic infrastructure includes 2 of 10 schools offering Advanced Placement (23 AP courses district-wide), a 616.4:1 student-counselor ratio, above both the ASCA benchmark and the roughly 408:1 national average, and 16.4% chronic absenteeism from the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection. Demographically, the student body averages 60.1% White, 15.2% African American, 11.9% Hispanic or Latino across the district's schools. Its most demographically mixed campus is Richmond Hill Elementary School, with a diversity index of 71.1/100.
Its largest campus is Richmond Hill High School, enrolling 2,671 students (25% of the district's total enrollment). Its smallest is Bryan County Middle School, at 430 students, a 6x enrollment spread across the district's campuses.
Richmond Hill High School accounts for 25.0% of all Bryan County student enrollment
That concentration means Bryan County-wide averages can mask substantial variation outside the dominant entity. Grade band: high. A single dominant campus often anchors a district's program offerings and staffing patterns; the share helps explain why district-wide averages may not reflect the typical neighbourhood-school experience. When one entity dominates a region's footprint, its programmatic and budget decisions effectively set policy for a majority of the affected population.
Bryan County school enrollment varies 6.2× across entities
Bryan County school enrollment ranges from 430 students (lowest) to 2,671 students (highest), a spread of 2,241 students. That relatively narrow ratio reflects an unusually homogeneous campus portfolio, most districts have a wider mix of school sizes. Per-school staffing ratios, programme availability, and capital-renovation cycles often diverge inside the same district based on enrollment shape.
Bryan County student-counselor ratio is 616:1 — well above typical (typically associated with unusually large scale or acute resource constraints)
student-counselor ratio is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: the ratio counts FTE counselors against total enrollment, districts that contract intervention or social-emotional staff outside the counselor classification may be under-counted Values this far above typical often signal acute resource constraints or a structurally different scale than most peers — worth reading alongside the underlying counts, not the ratio alone.
Bryan County chronic absenteeism rate is 16.4% — near the typical range (US average ~28) — aligned with the national post-pandemic baseline of roughly 28% chronic absenteeism
chronic absenteeism rate is the simplest comparative metric but it does not capture the full picture: a student is chronically absent if they miss ≥10% of enrolled days for any reason, illness, family obligations, or disengagement Variation between sub-units within Bryan County is typically wider than the Bryan County-aggregate figure suggests.
Bryan County has 10 schools, including 2 high, 2 middle, 4 combined, 2 elementary. Total enrollment is 10,221 students.
