In the 2024-25 school year, Lakeview Primary School recorded 10 Asian students, doubling its Asian enrollment from the prior year, according to data from the Georgia Department of Education.

The school’s total enrollment reached 512 during that period. Asian students represented 2% of the population, making them the school’s smallest demographic group.

Located within the Baldwin County School District, the school operates under the district’s central administration in Milledgeville.

Out of the six schools in Baldwin County School District, Baldwin High School reported the largest number of Asian students, with 12 enrolled in 2024-25.

The National Center for Education Statistics lists the statewide demographic breakdown of Georgia’s public school students as about 36.4% Black, 35.9% white, 18.1% Hispanic, 4% Asian, 4.6% multiracial, 0.2% American Indian or Alaska Native, and 0.1% Pacific Islander.

Post-pandemic, Georgia schools continue to face high rates of chronic absenteeism, with 20.7% of students missing at least 10% of school days in 2024, according to the Georgia Department of Education. Statewide initiatives include a real-time attendance dashboard, public awareness campaigns, and targeted assistance for districts with the highest needs.

In 2025, legislation in Georgia was enacted to update attendance laws, prohibiting expulsions based solely on absenteeism. The new law also implements additional reporting rules and supports alternative diploma pathways.

By 2026, Georgia’s average student-to-teacher ratio reached 14:1, which is an improvement over the national average of 15:1.
