What this school's NCES data tells you
Quail Run Elementary School reports 643 enrolled students to the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) alongside 43.0 full-time-equivalent teachers, producing a 14.9:1 student-teacher ratio. That figure sits 3% above the Georgia state mean of 14.5:1, signalling larger average class loads than peers in the same state. Against the national 2024-25 average of 15.9:1, it is 6% lower, a useful calibration for families comparing districts across state lines.
Title I and federal lunch eligibility offer another window into the student body: 35.7% of pupils qualify for free meals, a proxy for household income that federal programs use to direct funding. The free-lunch share is 41% below the Georgia average and 31% below the national baseline. Counselor coverage works out to roughly 612 students per counselor, above the ASCA-recommended ceiling of 250:1. Chronic absenteeism — missing 10% or more of school days — stands at 16.3% according to the 2021-22 Civil Rights Data Collection.
On the finance side, the surrounding Houston County spends $14,734 per pupil district-wide, below the Georgia average of $15,679 and below the national average of $19,490. Revenue comes 32.4% from local sources (property taxes), 52.2% from the state, and 15.4% from federal programs per the NCES F-33 finance survey. Taken together, these measurements produce a Resource Investment Index of 42/100 (D), calculated from 4 distinct NCES and CRDC indicators measuring resource allocation rather than academic outcomes.
