According to the data, overall enrollment at Midway Hills Primary stood at 478 students in 2024-25. Multiracial students accounted for 7% of the total, positioning them as the second smallest group represented at the school.

The campus is part of the Baldwin County School District, which is headquartered in Milledgeville.

The Georgia Department of Education’s Fiscal Year 2026-1 report counted over 1.7 million students in Georgia public schools. Enrollment figures were highest for elementary students at 787,206 (45.9%), followed by 388,733 in middle school (22.7%) and 539,092 in high school (31.4%).

Chronic absenteeism continues to affect schools across Georgia in the post-pandemic period. The Georgia Department of Education reported that 20.7% of students missed at least 10% of school days in 2024. To address this, GaDOE introduced a statewide campaign that features a real-time attendance dashboard, outreach initiatives, and additional support for districts with high need, aiming to improve daily attendance.

Legislation passed in 2025 updated Georgia’s attendance policies to prohibit expulsion based solely on absenteeism. The new law also includes more detailed reporting and supports alternative routes for students pursuing diplomas.

By 2026, Georgia reported an average student-to-teacher ratio around 14:1, surpassing the national ratio of 15:1.
